Just bought some wild boar steaks and I've never cooked them before.

This evening I'm at a camp site and only have the option of frying them.

Do I cook them like I would steak/ venison, with possibly some pinkness in them?

Or should they be fully cooked all the way through like pork?

Any advice appreciated - cheers.

Lovely !

I would do as with a pork chop. Flash fry and turn down the heat on hob, add a little wine/stock, put a lid on it and simmer for a couple more minutes.
Rest, reduce the liquid in the pan a little further and serve.

ETA : Pork can also be served pink, so don't over cook your wild boar.

Plenty of people use white wine with wild boar.

Mainly red wine is used, but I would think white wine will do the job just fine.

You could do them with Chinese flavours. Rick Stein has a very nice recipe for wild boar, but it's more of a stew/casserole but if you flash fry the meat and just add it at the end for cooking though then it could still be nice.

I didn't have wild boar so made it with pork.


Here is another Stein recipe. Mediterrannean with mushrooms and chorizo.

Wild boar and camping are a great combination. It will be great!
