Alright, cousins! It’s time to go real southern and soul food style on y’all! In this post, I’m going to show you how to make my southern-style pigs feet recipe.

If you’re on my Facebook, you’ve probably heard me say several times, “Don’t ask me to make pigs feet y’all!” and there was certainly a reason behind it. Cousins, my mom used to make pigs feet almost every darn day. As a kid, I hated it because it was so repetitive in my household. My mom’s pigs feet recipe seemed to always be in the rotation. Naturally, I grew tired of pigs feet! I now have a love and hate relationship with it. I love it when I what it, which is once or twice a year. And I hate it when I think of eating it every day as a child. Anyway, when I do make my southern-style pigs feet, it’s always on point!

Not to toot my own horn, but baby, I do make the best pigs feet! You see, the secret to delicious soul food style pigs feet is the seasonings and how it’s prepared. Down below, I’ll go over both!

All the ingredients needed to make delicious southern style pigs feet - pigs feet, onions and garlic, broth, and jalapeno peppers - tossed in a slow cooker.

Ingredients for Southern Style Pigs Feet

If not cooked properly, pigs feet can be very bland. That’s why I use a combination of delicious seasonings, garlic, and onion to set this dish right. To be more specific, here are a list of ingredients that I use for my southern-style pigs feet recipe.

  • Pigs Feet
  • Yellow Onion
  • Minced Garlic
  • Rosamae Seasoning Pork Seasoning
  • Chicken bouillon cubes
  • Jalapeno Pepper
  • Water

The ingredients sound simple enough right? Now let’s get into how I cook this dish.

A closer look at the tender pigs feel slowly simmering in slow cooker broth.

I like my southern-style pigs feet to be so tender that they are falling off the bone. Therefore I cook the pigs feet in a slow cooker. All I do is add in the pigs feet, seasonings, etc. Then I place the lid on top of the slow cooker, and I let the pigs feet cook on high for 6 hours.

This recipe is practically foolproof y’all, and the end results are definitely worth it!

I like to serve my southern style pigs feet with southern potato salad, soul food skillet-fried cabbage, and lot of hot sauce!

    I love pigs feet but I’m the only one. I always add them to my Mexican menudo. I will try your recipe as I’ve never cooked them in slow cooker.

    Hi my name is Michael and I’m from Texas .
    I made pig feet today and your recipe is identical to how we make them in Texas.
    But today I did pig feet on one side of my slow cooker and pork neck bones on the other.
    The only addition I made is I added smoky bacon drippings in that gives it all extra flavor.
