Loaded Wild Boar Sausages

Loaded Wild Boar Sausages

You may have never eaten boar in your life. Many people haven’t, but these loaded wild boar sausages make for a great introduction to this meat. Don’t be fooled. Boar is not similar to pork, even though it’s related to domestic pigs. The flavor profile is different.

My best way of explaining the taste is by combining pork and beef with dark meat. It is juicy, delectable, and savory. Better still, boar has low-fat content, and it’s high in protein, iron, and niacin. In other words, it’s good for you!

When cooking Boar, you have to be careful. It’s very lean and cooks quickly. Watch your sausages carefully. You don’t want them drying out. 

This recipe goes together quickly with little fuss.

IMPORTANT: Wild Boar must be fully cooked before consumption

Tip: The basic approach to sausage in this recipe works for other types of meat sausages. You may simply have to remain aware of the differences in internal temperature.

PitMaster Memo

If you are grilling a tender cut of Boar, it responds best to dry heat. Less tender cuts fare best with a moister heat. When your fork goes into less tender cuts easily, check the temperature. They’re probably ready.
