Wild Boar Chili Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground meat and cook, stirring and breaking up the meat, until no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Add half each of the onions and garlic and cook, stirring, 10 more minutes; set aside.
• Combine the fire-roasted tomatoes and tomato sauce in a large pot over medium heat and crush with a potato masher. Stir in the reserved meat, the remaining onions and garlic, the bell peppers, parsley, green chile, jalapenos, habanero and New Mexico chile. Add the chili powder, ancho chile powder, chipotle chile powder, 2 teaspoons salt, the cumin, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and the beer. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, stirring occasionally, 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 200 degrees F and lightly brush a baking sheet with olive oil. Cut the tomatoes in half and set cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tomatoes with more olive oil and sprinkle with salt; bake until darkened and wrinkled, about 1 hour.
• Crush the tomatoes with the potato masher and add to the pot; cover and simmer 2 more hours. Season with salt.

Steps:

• 1. Prepare beans ahead of time in accordance with their packaging and place in medium-large crock-pot on high heat.
• 2. Warm large saucepan. Add wild boar meat that has been roughly chopped and brown thoroughly. Remove meat and add to crock-pot, reserving grease.
• 3. Toss first four ingredients into boar meat grease (half the grease if using beef) and sweat until onions are opaque.
• 4. Add Garlic, spices and Cilantro and allow to saute 2-3 more minutes. Throw it all in the crock-pot + tomatoes. Spice tip: Start with the recommended amount and adjust as it works in the crock-pot.
• 5. You have a couple of options here. Leave crock on high, stirring often and enjoy in an hour, or Turn on medium (low if you have two settings) and walk away. Let cook a minimum of 3 hours. The longer it cooks, the bolder the flavors.
