noun
Refers to the meat from the leg of an animal, especially chicken, pork, or beef. In cooking contexts, it can be translated as 'round' (beef) or 'ham' (pork), but the core meaning is simply 'leg meat'.

このスーパーでは豚もも肉が安い。

Compound of もも (thigh/leg) and 肉 (meat). The kanji spellings 股 and 腿 are both possible for もも, but もも肉 is the most common written form.
