That is gonna be good! Store bought pork doesn't hold a candle to the wild stuff. Wish I still hunted where there were wild pigs to harvest. Best pulled pork ever!
D'oh! These were the only photos I got of the meat all cooked up. Had a few people over for the cookout and got distracted. I threw on some babybacks a little later into the cook as well, as you can see.
The boar meat was really quite tasty. It was very lean and had a mouth feel kind of like turkey or one of the leaner muscles you would find in a typical pork shoulder. Flavor was great honestly, no gaminess or anything like that. This was an 80lb pig.
I knew it was a lean piece of meat, so I injected it with a little bit of apple juice and also spritzed it with apple juice throughout the cook. Shredded most of the meat and when sauced and on a bun, you couldnt really tell any difference from a pork shoulder you got at the grocery store. Over all, it was a success! Everybody liked it.
