The pork leg – the secret to a terrific feast! The semimembranosus muscle, i.e., the topside, just like the quadriceps (knuckle), is an excellent choice for roasting thanks to its delicate and juicy texture. A grilled or barbecued leg is the perfect way to add a traditional touch and make any feast complete.
The pork leg topside is also used to make steamed bacon. It is a great cut for goulash, meat patties, meatballs and roulades or as stuffing for dumplings, etc.
