Honey-Glazed Roast Boar

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Main Courses
Wild boar is darker and denser than pork, with a distinct game flavor. Because it's leaner, it can dry out easily. 'Low & slow' roasting in a steamy environment softens the fibers, while a honey-mustard glaze added at the end provides a crisp, caramelized contrast to the savory meat.

Allergen Information

⚠️ Mustard

Instructions

1 ✓

Trim silverskin. Crush garlic and chop rosemary. Mix with oil, salt, and pepper. Rub into meat. Let sit for 1 hour.

Tip: Salt begins to denature (tenderize) proteins.
2 ✓

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Chop vegetables into chunks, place in roasting pan, add stock. Place meat on top.

Tip: Low heat is gentler on game. Veggies act as a rack.
3 ✓

Cover tightly with foil. Roast 1.5 - 2 hours until internal temp reaches 160°F (70°C).

Tip: Steam cooks the meat gently.
4 ✓

Remove foil. Increase oven to 400°F (200°C). Mix honey and mustard, brush over meat.

Tip: Mustard helps emulsify the honey for better adhesion.
5 ✓

Roast 15-20 more mins until glaze is dark golden and caramelized. Watch closely to prevent burning!

Tip: Caramelization adds depth, but honey burns fast.
6 ✓

Remove and rest for 15 minutes before carving.

Tip: Cutting immediately drains juices, leaving dry meat.

Recipe FAQ

Why cover the meat?
Foil traps steam, braising the meat. This breaks collagen down into gelatin, making it tender.
When to glaze?
Only at the very end! Honey burns easily and would turn black and bitter if roasted for the full 2 hours.
