Chapter (1) Getting Started with Trotters

A. Sourcing Quality Trotters

For an exceptional trotter burger, start with quality ingredients. Seek out fresh trotters from a reputable butcher or local farm. Look for trotters that are well-trimmed, with clean, pink skin and a firm texture. Quality sourcing ensures the foundation of your burger is top-notch.

B. Trotter Preparation and Cleaning

Before diving into the culinary magic, it's crucial to properly prepare and clean your trotters. Begin by rinsing them under cold water to remove any impurities. Then, using a sharp knife, trim excess fat and hairs. For added cleanliness, blanch the trotters in boiling water for a few minutes. This step not only enhances hygiene but also sets the stage for a cleaner, more appealing presentation.

Elevate the taste of trotters by infusing them with a flavorful marinade. In a bowl, combine soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Massage this aromatic blend onto the trotters, ensuring each piece is coated evenly. Allow the trotters to marinate for at least two hours, or preferably overnight, in the refrigerator. This marination not only imparts depth to the trotters but also prepares them to absorb the smoky essence of the grill.
