Wild Boar Cooking Tips

FOR MOST TENDER CUTS USE DRY HEAT

FOR MEDIUM TENDER CUTS USE A COMBINATION OF DRY AND MOIST HEAT

FOR LESS TENDER CUTS USE MOIST HEAT

USE LOW COOKING TEMPERATURES

COOK SLOWLY

DO NOT COOK PAST MEDIUM DONE STAGE

COOK LESS TENDER CUTS UNTIL FORK GOES IN EASILY    

Do not cook or thaw in a microwave because this will toughen the meat. Slowly thaw meat the day before and marinate overnight for best results. Pineapple juice or wine is an effective meat tenderizer.
