Transfer hocks to cabbage, discarding vegetables and bay leaves (save broth for another use). Nestle the hocks in the cabbage, using the cabbage to cover exposed flesh but leaving skin exposed. Season hocks with salt and pepper. Broil until the skin is browned on one side, 8 to 10 minutes. Turn the hock over and broil again until the skin is brown and crispy, about another 8 minutes.
