Pig’s Tails Two Ways

Pig’s tails are a different challenge from feet. I actually like them better, as there is more meat and they are less gelatinous. There is a good amount of fat where the tail joins the spine and this should be trimmed. Pig’s tails come in various lengths (and they are not curly). Unlike the feet, tails don’t need any wrapping before cooking or pressing, as they hold their shape well.
