Mike, that side pork looks like it has a lot of fat on it. Personally I don't like to eat fat on any meat. But... It looks very similar to what they buy and cook in Vietnam. They braise it and cook it with sugar and whatnot boiling it on a stove and they add boiled eggs to it. It is pretty good to eat. Of course that is after I pick the lean meat away from the fat. It's a normal delicacy that they eat in Vietnam during Tet. And they often make it outside of the holiday.
