Pork trachea, cleaned and bagged whole. It is mostly cartilage, which means it does nothing interesting in a hot pan and everything you want in a long simmer — it breaks down into body and collagen, so it is used to build soups and stocks rather than eaten as a cut on its own.
A steady share of this bag goes home with dog owners, who dehydrate the rings into chews. We sell it the same either way: whole, frozen, and untrimmed.
