Add the pigs hunted for food in the area?
Those are Javelinas if I am not mistaken. If they are Javelina, they are not the best tasting and even when "treated" correctly the meat is not very good. My brother in law, we call him the "Great White Hunter" gave us some meat and it was pretty bad...Maybe just not prep correctly...don't know.Someone told me that they are not related to pigs but closer to dogs...Again, not sure...They are kinda cute in a homely way I think...Tony
My Brother in Law, who hunts has given us properly "prepared " javelina meat, and I have had grandma , who could make a shoe sole taste good,cook it many ways, even soaking in milk,and adding juniper berries to remove the gamyness, and to no avail, it always tastes like crap. my BIL was careful to excise the musk gland on the back, leaving clear margins and everything, then actually soaking the meat in iced salt water. Folks in these parts of AZ know how to clean/cook these critters the best you can, they are just not a good tasting meat IMHO ! The folks I do know, that enjoy it, are all hunters, and they cook it on a plow disc( al disco) like a big wok,meat chopped up in small pieces,and loaded with chopped jalapenos, and onions, and beer, and then they make burritos,and pour hot salsa , and squeeze lime juice on top at the table. I think it also helps if you already have a few beers in you when you eat it, for sure! Rick.
