BRAISED WILD BOAR BACK
This is a recipe I adapted from a German cookbook that we have. The original recipe required a pot that you can use in the oven, as we don't own one, I used a frying pan and a small roasting pan made some adjustments for the temperature. The back cut of wild boar includes the spine and some of the ribs connected to it so 2kg may sound like a lot of meat, however a lot of the weight is from the bones. The meat without the bones would be a loin cut. I served it with potato dumplings and salad, but it would be good with boiled potatoes and Rotkohl as well. You should use a roasting pan that isn't too much bigger than the cut of meat.
