These delicious treats go by many names...
depending on where you're standing when you see them. In Berlin, they're called Eisbein, in Munich they're called Schweins Hax'n, in Vienna, they're called Stelzer. They're all the same thing, a piece of a pigs legs, roasted to crispy crunchy wonder on the outside, juicy and succulent on the inside. In Munich, many shops and restaurants have them roasting in the windows were you see them turning, roasting, smoking, and hissing with little grease fireworks exploding around them.
Heaven on a plate (usually wood board trencher) with a Knodel some sauerkraut and a liter of Munich Helles or Weissbier.
Zum Wohl!

...roasting, smoking hissing: LOL, reminded me of an old album by Danny Kaye reading children's
folk stories, and one story was about a chicken being roasted and I swear we could hear and smell that chicken and see the drippings coming out of the record player. What a story teller! The album also had the Bremen Musicians story.
