Wild Boar Sausage
Cornholio
Posts: 1,047
My buddy brought me two different kinds of boar sausage, a couple of pounds labeled breakfast sausage and a couple of pounds of jalapeño sausage. It is not in casing/links, just ground sausage. I plan on making some ABTs, stuffed bell peppers and probably stuffed mushrooms with the jalapeño variety. The breakfast sausage will most likely go in a breakfast strata that we make for holiday mornings.
Should I add regular pork sausage to add in some additional fat? In its current frozen state there appears to be a decent amount of fat but I’ve read that wild boar tends to be a bit lean.
TIA for any insight or additional suggestions on how best to use this stuff.

I'm betting they already added it, that being said it would be an issue if just doing ABTS. And such ....enjoy as is, adding anything " may" affect the blend taste, but I would add a little fat to a pan if fryingVisalia, Ca @lkapigian

Why not just fry up a sample and see how you like it?
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

Ok, finally just heard back from him and they did add in fat to the sausages so that answers my question on adding anything else to it.
He also just said he has some ribs and a picnic roast for me to cook up.I’ll post up the cooks and results here later. -
The ribs and picnic roast will likely be very lean. I've cooked several wild pig parts and a few small whole wild pigs. They can dry out very quickly. Injections and foil are your friends when cooking wild pig.
