Title: Pork - horseshoe cut
Post by: Foobar on September 04, 2013, 02:34:20 pm

I was looking up cutting specs for various cuts of meat and I came across one that I've not heard of before:

A horseshoe cut of pork ... I know it's from the leg, but can anyone tell me which bit in particular, and how one would cut one please?

When referring to gammon it's a steak cut from the whole leg after the thigh bone has been tunneled out leaving the muscles whole minus the bone. It can look vaguely horeshoe shaped.
