A pig is a magical animal that the following comes from:

Bacon
Pork chops
Ribs
Pork rinds
Boston butt (shoulder commonly used for pulled pork)
Sliced ham (taken from hind leg)
Ham hocks/feet
Snouts
Tender loin
Lard
Whole roasted pig

I'm Vietnamese, so I love the whole roasted variety with the dipping juices.

What's your favorite cut of this magical animal? I'm talking about a cut of pork, not pork as an ingredient in a dish like pork sausage or pork dumplings.

It's all too delicious to say one part is better than another.
 
Seriously, to all the non Asians out there, go to your local Chinatown and get some roasted swine. It'll be hanging on a hook. You don't even need to be Asian. Just point to it and tell them how many pounds. They'll give you a small container of au jus sauce. It has a shit load of fat, but YOLO!
 
Feet didn't make the list? Pozole with some pigs feet is great! But I agree with the guy who said all parts are equally as good... just depends on what dish you're having.

Ham hocks are pig feet.

Edit: Not exactly, but you get my drift. Will edit.
