I've got a massive fresh ham shank in my freezer. Can I use it in a recipe that calls for a pork shoulder? What exactly is fresh ham anyway?

I love this site--I've gotten a lot of great ideas here that I've riffed off of, like guava mustard pork chops and a contest-winning recipe for "Crocktoberfest" for Kapusta Pork from their newest "Crockstar."
