Osso buco is a great choice for even the most inexperienced cooks. It’s virtually impossible to mess up. The longer you cook it, the more tender it gets. The flavor is incredible. Being in the slow cooker category of cuts of meat, osso buco, or leg shank, comes from muscles that get a lot of use. This means that the meat is incredibly flavorful but quite tough - that is, until it’s slow cooked to tender perfection. If it’s not so tender it’s falling apart when you check for doneness, simply cook it longer. The flavors meld together beautifully in the dutch oven (you could also make this in an Instant Pot or crock pot). Since the leg shank is cut horizontally across the bone, there’s even more complex and rich flavor added from the melted bone marrow.

Delicious, Flavorful & Sustainable Meat

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.

It’s lower in total fat and calories while offering more omega 3 fatty acids, vitamins and minerals.

Ingredients:

• 3-4 lbs wild boar osso buco
• ¼ cup flour for dredging

• 3 large cloves of garlic, finely minced
• 1 cup red wine

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Let the wild boar shanks sit out for approximately 15 minute at room temperature before cooking.
2. Season the osso buco generously on both sides with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Dredge them in the flour, shake off the excess and set aside.
3. Heat 2 tablespoons of bison tallow in a large dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the wild boar shanks, forming a flavorful crust on each side (work in batches if necessary). Set the seared shanks aside on a plate.
4. Reduce the heat to medium and add the rest of the bison tallow to the dutch oven. Cook the chopped parsnips, onion and garlic until tender.
5. Add the red wine to the pot and cook for a few more minutes. Add the can of tomatoes, crushing them with a wooden spoon or your hands, and one cup of bison bone broth. Then add the herbs, tomato paste and lemon zest. Stir to combine and cook for approximately 5 minutes.
6. Add the seared wild boar shanks back into the pot. Nestle them in so they are mostly covered by the sauce. If necessary, you can add more bone broth to create more liquid.
7. Put the lid on the dutch oven and cook in the preheated oven for 2 ½ hours, or until the meat is fork tender. Check halfway through to see if more liquid needs to be added. Serve over mashed potatoes if desired. Enjoy!

This is the perfect breakfast for a snow day or lazy Sunday morning when you feel like enjoying some time baking with loved ones. Baking is such a wonderful bonding activity. Some of my favorite childhood memories are of making holiday breakfasts or desserts with my mother in the kitchen.

Wild Boar Bacon Is The (Not So) Secret Ingredient

If you’ve never tried our wild boar bacon before, get ready to be obsessed. Bacon is already known for being one of the most delicious foods in existence. Our wild boars roam the forests of the Southwest, foraging their natural preferred diet of roots, nuts, berries and tubers. This gives our wild boar meat a nutty, complex flavor profile that has so much depth and dimension compared to conventional pork bacon. It’s also slightly less greasy than conventional bacon and contains more vitamins and minerals. Wild boar is one of the most sustainable meats you can eat. The species is not native to North America and as a result their skyrocketing populations have a detrimental effect on the forests they live in.

Instructions:

1. First, make the cinnamon rolls. In a small saucepan, whisk together the milk, avocado oil and coconut sugar. Heat until it is near boiling but not actually boiling. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool completely.
2. After allowing the mixture approximately 45 minutes to cool completely, put it in the bowl of a stand mixer. Add the yeast and let it sit for a few minutes to activate. You’ll know it’s activated when it starts to bubble.
3. Add 2 cups of flour to the stand mixer. Combine. Cover the bowl and let the dough rise for about an hour (it should double in volume).
4. Once the dough has finished rising, add the remaining ¼ cup of flour along with the baking powder, baking soda and sea salt. Mix to combine.
5. Prepare a lightly floured surface to roll out the dough. Form a rectangle.
6. Drizzle melted butter over the rectangle of dough. Add cinnamon and coconut sugar as desired.
7. Tightly roll the rectangle like a rug. Pinch the end of the roll to seal in place.
8. Grease the bottom of a baking dish with more melted butter.
9. Slice the log of cinnamon rolls into pieces about one inch in thickness. Add them into the baking pan.
10. Set the pan aside to allow the cinnamon rolls to rise, approximately 20-30 minutes.
11. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
12. While the cinnamon rolls are baking, make the glaze. Whisk together the wet ingredients. Gradually add in powdered sugar until you reach the desired sweetness and consistency. Fold in the chopped bacon as desired.
13. When the cinnamon rolls are finished baking, drizzle the glaze over top. Garnish with more chopped bacon as desired.
