Leg

Leg of Wild Boar is whole haunch or poultry leg for roasting and braising. Cook long enough for collagen and safety. Cook wild boar leg to temperature when thickness varies, rest before carving, and add fat or sauce if lean. Stews, roasts, sausage, and ragù show the cut’s strengths. Match heat to collagen—fast sear for tender muscle, long moist heat for hard-working joints.
