Around 25 years ago I bought a really pretty pack of bacon at a local grocery. When I cooked it, there was a raunchy taste.
I returned it and the butcher said someone had slipped a boar hog by him. As I said, it was really pretty and had no odor uncooked.
We slaughter the wild hogs here in Texas and on a good night can kill 30-40 in a night. For eating we just cut the hind quarters off the 100-150 pounders. This is helicopter hunting. For eradication not fun.
They cook up really well on the grill. Gas or charcoal.
