Preparation

Screen ON

Step 1

It’s best to start preparing the pork knuckle at least a day in advance. You'll need about 12 hours for marinating and another 12 hours for slow cooking in the multicooker.

Step 2

Wash and pat dry the pork knuckle. If the skin is still on, clean it with a knife. Mine came already skinless.

Step 3

Peel the garlic. Cut each clove lengthwise into 2 parts. You can use more garlic if desired or substitute with 2 tablespoons of dried garlic.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix soy sauce and mustard until smooth.

Step 5

Using a knife, make deep cuts all around the pork knuckle. Stuff the garlic into the cuts.

Step 6

Rub the pork all over with salt and pepper, then sprinkle with dried herbs. Keep in mind that soy sauce adds salt too, so don’t overdo it.

Step 7

Coat the pork with the soy-mustard marinade evenly.

Step 8

Place the pork knuckle on a large piece of foil folded in half. Wrap it tightly, folding the edges upward to keep the marinade inside. Refrigerate for 10-12 hours to marinate.

Step 9

Transfer the foil-wrapped meat into the multicooker bowl and close the lid.

Step 10

Set the "Multicook" program at 176°F (80°C). Cook for 12-13 hours.

Step 11

Carefully remove the cooked pork knuckle from the bowl. It will be very tender and juicy, easily coming off the bone. Unwrap the foil. If desired, place the pork in a preheated oven at 392°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes for a light golden crust.

Step 12

Transfer the pork knuckle to a serving plate and serve with any side dish. Enjoy!
