Apparently, not only is the cheek and throat meat the most tender, but also makes the best fish stocks. She must have a walk in at her house because she has trash bags full of fish heads (i totally wanted to type Phish heads ;-)) everyday that she takes home. It would appear the same applies to pigs....

Do you happen to watch King of the Hill? Tonights episode was all about Hank and a Co-Op and how good the meat was and how the mega-lo-mart came in and ruined everything. It was great! 2. I'm totally making pancetta if my bacon turns out okay. or even if it doesn't. 3. Just do all the head stuff while she's not at home. The book Heat has some great things to say about using the head...and the rest of a whole pig for that matter. 1. Do you happen to watch King of the Hill?
