These methods are ideal for capitalizing on the collar's rich fat content, resulting in tender meat and crispy skin:
- Grilled: Season simply with salt and pepper, brush with oil, and grill over medium-high heat until the skin is charred and crispy.
- Broiled (Sake Kama): Marinate lightly in soy sauce, mirin, and ginger. Broil on high heat until the meat is flaky and the edges are caramelized. This is the traditional "Sake Kama" style!
- Air Fryer: A quick and easy way to achieve maximum crispiness on the skin and edges with a moist interior.
- Roasted/Baked: Place on a sheet pan with citrus slices and herbs, and roast at high heat (around 400°F/200°C) until cooked through.
- Deep Fried: For a truly indulgent treat, the high-fat content makes the collar excellent for deep frying until golden brown and extremely crispy.

Defrosting Guidelines
- Overnight in the Fridge: Small packs take 6–12 hours; large packs take 12–48 hours.
