Beef cheeks are excellent lightly smoked. I've never seen just pork
cheeks for sale, and buying a whole head seesm like overkill just for
the cheeks.
It is kinda weird seeing those whole pig heads in cryovac, staring up
at you from the meat case. That's one of the few things I've never
tried to cook. But there's still time.
