Eating wild boar roast is a delicious and unique dining experience that is sure to impress. Wild boar, also known as wild hog or feral pig, is a lean and flavorful meat that is similar to pork but with a more robust, red meat taste.

Are you looking for the perfect meal to prepare on Valentine’s Day? Something that will sweep your date off their feet, making them feel loved, appreciated… and maybe even something that has an aphrodisiac effect.

It’s been a great summer here in Santa Fe. I’m lucky to live in one of the most beautiful places in the country - New Mexico, the land of enchantment. Our summer is full of sunny days, incredible sunsets and epic thunderstorms during monsoon season. Often it seems like we have a massive heat wave right before the seasons start to shift.

At Beck & Bulow, our team knows a thing or two about a good burger. We’ve perfected our burger recipe and want to share it with you. We’ve carefully tested the best combinations of our delicious ground meat selections to create a burger with the ultimate flavor and juiciness that will give you the utmost satisfaction.

This sandwich is incredibly unique and a must-try. Hainanese cuisine comes from the island Hainan at the southern tip of China. This is a savory, absolutely delicious Southeast Asian flavored wild boar sandwich made on French toast. Traditionally made with pork, I used our ground wild boar and it was amazing.

This vindaloo made with wild boar shoulder is layered with complex, mouthwatering flavor. I love making dishes like this and enjoying the incredible smells from cooking with whole spices. The Kashmiri chiles can often be found at international markets, but if you can’t get your hands on any just substitute with ⅓ to ½ as many chiles de arbol.

I really enjoy some of the names of dishes from British cooking. Bubble and squeak is definitely on that list, and supposedly gets its name from the sounds that the patties make while frying. This recipe (or variations of it) date back centuries. It lends itself perfectly to using up leftover food and cleverly transforms it into a delicious breakfast. You can substitute the vegetables for whatever you have left over, as well as the meat. You can definitely make this whether you have leftovers available or not - it would just require some more time to prepare as you would need to make mashed potatoes, roast some vegetables and fry up some bacon. I like bubble and squeak made into patties, but you can also fry it up all at once in the skillet and then cut slices for individual servings.

Why Everyone Loves Cooking With Bison Tallow

Tallow is rendered fat, cooked over low heat so that it separates from bits of muscle and connective tissue. This ensures that nothing but pure fat is left behind. Tallow is great for cooking at high temperatures because it has a very high smoke point. It also has an impressive shelf life and won’t go rancid like other cooking oils. It gives food a rich, delicious flavor and can be substituted for butter or oil in any recipe. Tallow used to be a kitchen staple before the popularization of vegetable oils. It’s far nutritionally superior, plus makes food taste and cook better. Once I tried cooking my food with tallow, I stopped purchasing vegetable oils completely. It really does make that big of a difference.

One Of The Most Sustainable Meats You Can Eat

Our Southwestern wild boar roam the forests, foraging their natural diet. They love to eat berries, nuts, roots and tubers which give their meat its unique and delectable flavor profile. They’re trapped under the supervision of specialized veterinarians and butchered by a small scale, species specific facility. Just like all of our products, we care about where this meat comes from. Wild boar are actually an invasive species to North America, and their population continues to grow. They ruin crops and disrupt the growth of endangered plants in forests by digging in the soil. When we eat humanely trapped wild boar meat it helps to protect our food supply and forest ecosystems.

Ingredients:

• Bison tallow or butter
• ½ cup onion, finely chopped
• 2 cups leftover mashed potatoes
• ½ cup chopped roasted brussels sprouts
• ½ cup chopped roasted carrots

4. Season with additional sea salt and freshly ground black pepper as desired. Set the patties aside and keep warm.
5. Fry the eggs, adding more bison tallow or butter to the skillet as necessary.

Wild Boar Bacon Makes Everything Taste Better

Our wild boar bacon is the perfect touch to take this quiche to a level above the rest. The nutty, rich flavor of wild boar is absolutely irresistible. We get customers all the time who tell us that once they try wild boar bacon, they simply don’t want any other kind. This recipe would be a great one to make with our bacon ends and pieces, which are already roughly chopped. If you can’t find gruyere cheese, gouda makes a good substitute - white cheddar would work well too.

Ingredients:

• 1 frozen pie crust
• ½ lb wild boar bacon, finely chopped
• on ends & pieces
• 1 shallot, minced
• 4 eggs
• 1 cup grated Gruyere or Gouda cheese
• 1 cup whole milk
• ¾ cup heavy cream

• ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
• ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 egg white, lightly beaten
• 1 ½ tablespoons finely chopped green onions

Instructions:

1. Thaw the pie crust. Pre-bake according to the instructions on the package (remember to poke some holes in the bottom). Let cool and then brush the inside of the crust with the lightly beaten egg white. Set aside.
2. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Cook until the bacon is crispy. Remove the bacon using a slotted spoon and set it aside on a paper towel lined plate.
3. Cook the onions in the bacon fat that’s left in the skillet. Sauté to a tender golden brown, then set the cooked onions aside with the bacon.
4. Crack the four eggs into a large mixing bowl and whisk until combined. Add in the whole milk, heavy cream, paprika and nutmeg. Season as desired with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Beat for a minute or two to whisk some air into the mixture. Add in the grated cheese, bacon and onion and stir to combine. Top it off with the green onions distributed evenly over the quiche.
5. Bake the quiche in the preheated oven for approximately 45 minutes. It should be mostly set so that only the center has a little jiggle when moved - the eggs will continue to cook a bit after the quiche has been removed from the oven, so you want to take care that it doesn’t get overcooked.
6. Cool for 5-10 minutes before serving and enjoy!

Scotch eggs might sound like they’re from Scotland, but they’re actually quintessential English pub food. They’re really popular largely due to their convenience - they can easily be sold ready made in grocery stores and convenience stores. But eating one of those versions doesn’t do the Scotch egg justice. To truly experience how wonderful Scotch eggs are, you need to make your own. Traditionally they’re usually made with just pork sausage wrapped around the eggs. I did half ground wild boar to add more dimension to the flavor of the meat. I like my yolks a little runny, so if you like yours more hard boiled just cook them a couple minutes longer.

Free Range Heritage Pork Raised On The Rio Grande River

Our heritage pork is raised completely free range on a beautiful small farm here in Northern New Mexico. Each animal has approximately one half acre of land. These pigs roam as they please, swimming in the Rio Grande river. The farm is a rehabilitation center for those struggling with drug addictions. The center features agricultural therapy through caring for and interacting with the pigs. These animals get daily interaction, treats and live a completely stress-free life. Living stress-free is important for all animals, but particularly essential for pigs because they are quite sensitive. This pork is USDA Certified and grain fed with a nutritionally balanced diet. The pigs consume a nutritionally ideal ratio of crude protein, crude fiber and plant fiber. This pork is completely hormone, steroid and antibiotic free, just like all our other meat.

Ingredients:

(Makes 8 Scotch Eggs)

• 10 free range XL eggs
• 1 pound heritage pork mild Italian sausage
• ¾ pound ground wild boar meat
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme (or 1 tablespoon fresh)
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley (or 1 tablespoon fresh)
• 1 teaspoon dried sage (or 1 tablespoon fresh)
• ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• Sea salt & freshly ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon half and half
• 6 tablespoons all purpose flour
• 1 cup Japanese panko breadcrumbs
• 1 cup finely crushed cornflakes
• 1 quart safflower oil

Also Read: Biscuits & Gravy With Green Chile Heritage Pork Sausage

For the Dijon dipping sauce:

• 2 cups Dijon mustard
• ¼ cup mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

Instructions:

1. Place 8 of the eggs into a small pot and fill with cold water until the eggs are completely submerged. Bring the pot to a boil. Watch closely because as soon as it reaches a boil, you need to reduce the heat to low, set a timer and simmer for four minutes. This will give you eggs that are perfectly soft boiled with a runny yolk. Use a slotted spoon or tongs to transfer the eggs to a bowl with ice water. Submerge and chill for 10-20 minutes. Carefully and gently peel the eggs and set them aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the pork sausage, ground wild boar, mustard and nutmeg. Season as desired with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Use your hands to mix just until combined (take care not to overmix). Divide the mixture into 8 evenly sized balls.
3. Take three small bowls. In the first, lightly beat the remaining two eggs with the tablespoon of half and half.
4. In the second bowl, season the flour with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Stir to combine. In the third bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, corn flakes and herbs.
5. Place a small piece of plastic wrap flat on a clean counter. Put one of the balls of meat in the center, cover with another piece of plastic wrap and then use your hands to flatten it out until it’s large enough to wrap around one of the eggs and cover on all sides. Repeat with the remaining meatballs.
6. To assemble the scotch eggs, remove the top piece of plastic wrap from one of the sections of meat. Take one of the peeled eggs and coat it in flour, shaking off any excess. Place it in the middle of the meat. Wrap the meat completely around the egg, then remove the plastic wrap. Coat the outside of the scotch egg in flour, then egg, then the breadcrumb and cornflake mixture. Then dip once more in the egg and the breadcrumbs and cornflakes to make a double coating. Repeat the process with the remaining eggs, and set aside on a plate.
7. Fill a large, thick bottomed pot or Dutch oven with about three inches of safflower oil. Heat over medium-high heat until the oil reaches 350 degrees Fahrenheit. If you don’t have a thermometer, check it by flicking a few breadcrumbs in. If they sizzle and turn golden without burning, the oil is the right temperature.
8. Fry the eggs, working in batches so they have plenty of room. Cook each batch for about 6 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and crisp all over. Set the fried scotch eggs on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
9. To make the dipping sauce, simply whisk together all the ingredients.
10. Serve and enjoy! Scotch eggs are good cold too, so they make great leftovers.

I have loved Chinese takeout food since I was a kid. This homemade version of sweet and sour pork uses wild boar tenderloin, and it turns out absolutely delicious. It would be great with heritage pork, too, or with chunks of chicken! Double dipping the meat in flour during the dredging process helps it turn out extra crispy, and the sauce thickens up perfectly to coat every piece. Serve over freshly steamed rice for the yummiest bowl of comfort food you’ve had in ages! The ideal dinner for watching a great movie snuggled under some blankets.

In Japan, nori furikake is the go-to seasoning for just about anything - akin to how we use salt and pepper here in America. This earthy, salty seasoning is absolutely delicious and consists of dried seaweed, kelp, salt and nutty sesame seeds. You’ll love the flavor it gives your food and it’s especially tasty in stir fries. You can find nori furikake seasoning on the Asian cooking aisle of most grocery stores (it’s also readily available online). Our ground wild boar meat makes this stir fry rich and satisfying. Chopped brussels sprouts add vibrant green color and crunchy yet tender texture.

Meatballs have got to be one of the most versatile and convenient things that I make. They reheat well, can go on top of just about anything, and there’s endless possibilities when it comes to flavors, seasonings and sauces. These hoisin meatballs are the perfect sweet and savory combination of Asian flavors. Hoisin sauce, also known as Chinese barbecue sauce, is awesome for cooking (it also makes a delicious condiment). It’s wonderfully salty, slightly sweet and rich in flavor. A little bit goes a long way. It makes for a really tasty sauce for these bison and wild boar meatballs, and they’re incredibly quick to make using an Instant Pot. You can have these ready in less than 30 minutes from start to finish. Serve on top of rice, on their own, over noodles or any other way that strikes your fancy!

Free Range Bison Raised On Our Beautiful Ranch

Our bison live free range on 10,000 beautiful acres here in New Mexico, or roam freely on our carefully selected partner ranches. They are pasture raised and never administered any amount of hormones, steroids or antibiotics. These are powerful, strong animals that live essentially wild with minimal handling. There were once 60 million bison roaming North America, and we hope to see their numbers increase back to even 1 million during our lifetime. By increasing the demand for ethically sourced bison meat, we can help to bolster their population. The more people that want to purchase this nourishing and nutrient dense meat, the more farmers will be encouraged to raise bison. This directly helps to increase the number of herds which assists in providing genetic diversity for the population.
