• Just be sure to brine it and maybe protect it with bacon/some kind of fat cap, boar is very lean compared to pork...

    Slow and low in the smoker?

  • Of course in the smoker.

    Am hoping by low and slow cooking it won't dry out. Am guessing if I wrap with bacon the meat won't get smoked. But this is why I am thinking of injecting the meat before cooking.

  • I've seen it injected with aromatic infused marrow and rendered beef lard (on TV and only a couple of days ago), looked amazing... That was a whole leg...

    I slow roasted a boar shoulder porchetta for 8-10 hours one Christmas and it was a bit dry for my liking, great flavour but deffo needed more protection... Wild boar so very little fat...
