Wild Boar boneless shoulder has a sweet and nutty flavor and is perfect for hearty, slow-cooked meals. Try using wild boar shoulders instead of conventional pork shoulders for braising dishes.
Unlike most Wild Boar on the market today, ours isn’t farm-raised—it’s truly wild, trapped in the Texas Hill Country. This wild boar is all-natural, with no growth hormones and no antibiotics. They are humanely treated during and after capture.
The wildness of true Wild Boar meat gives it a distinct game flavor that farm-raised Wild Boar simply cannot match. Although similar to domestic pork and farm-raised Wild Boar, wild Wild Boar has a deeper color, leaner texture, tighter grain, and bolder taste.
Origin: Texas
Applications: Shoulders are best when braised. Wild Boar shoulder is a great substitute in recipes for pulled pork, either on sandwiches, or as a roast.
BBQ sauces and rubs meant for conventional pork will work, but the nuanced, sweet nutty taste of wild boar also opens other possibilities commonly used when cooking game meats. Wild boar meat pairs well with rich, fruity flavors like red wine, prunes, brandy, and apples. Herbs and spices frequently used with wild boar include rosemary, thyme, and the always game meat friendly juniper berries.
Recommended Cooking Temps: The USDA recommends that all wild-caught game be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
How to Store & Share: Use what you want and the rest of these shoulder wild boar roasts will freeze nicely in a zip lock or vacuum sealed bag and can be saved for another occasion or split with friends and family.
