We are fortunate to get our hands on some of the best heritage breed pasture-raised pork in Colorado and we love the nitrate free ham steaks and hocks. If you're lucky enough to get one of these ham products in your basket they pair great with Anasazi Beans from Adobe Milling from Dove Creek Colorado to make Ham Hocks and Beans. Pair with rice or cornbread for an easy meal.
