Pork Knucle, Sauerkraut and mash potato

Place scored Pork Knuckle in a large pot and add bayleaves, peppercorns and 350ml of Wheat beer (home brew of course) add water to cover. Simmer pork for 3-4 hours and allow to cool in pot this can be done the day before if required. To finish cooking heat a oven to a high heat 220-250 set to top heat if possible. Rub Pork knuckle skin with white vinegar and salt, standing the knuckle upright so all sides of the skin will be crisp. Cook till crisp then cook for a futher 40-60 minutes at 180. Serve with mashed potato and sauerkraut heated with garlic and onions with a little oil in the pan.

Beaten by almost all who try but ever so delicious.
