If you love Thai food, these easy coconut curry wild boar meatballs will be one of your new favorite meals. The sauce is a simple but luscious and richly spiced coconut milk curry. This will hit the spot for any Thai food craving, made even better by the flavorful wild boar meatballs. Wild boar is my first choice for meatballs - if I use another meat, I always mix half and half with wild boar. The reason is because it makes the meatballs moist, tender and flavorful. This fresh and satisfying meal is anything but boring yet simple and quick to prepare.

A Delicious & Sustainable Meat Choice

Our Southwestern wild boar roam the forests, foraging their natural diet. They love to eat berries, nuts, roots and tubers which give their meat its unique and delectable flavor profile. They’re trapped under the supervision of specialized veterinarians and butchered by a small scale, species specific facility. Just like all of our products, we care about where this meat comes from. Wild boar are actually an invasive species to North America, and their population continues to grow. They ruin crops and disrupt the growth of endangered plants in forests by digging in the soil. When we eat humanely trapped wild boar meat it helps to protect our food supply and forest ecosystems.

Expertly Butchered For Exceptional Meat

People are always asking us about the best ways to eat wild boar. If you’re used to eating pork, the nutty and delicious flavor of wild boar meat will blow your mind. It’s so much more flavorful and satisfying than conventional pork. Customers tell us all the time that they find themselves unable to go back to eating conventional pork after trying out this meat.

In addition to the unbeatable flavor, wild boar meat offers a multitude of health benefits that really outshine conventional pork. It’s lower in total fat and calories while offering more omega 3 fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. We are big believers in the advantages of eating wild meat and the nutritional profile of wild boar is a perfect example of this. Our wild boar meat is unparalleled in flavor because we work with small-scale, species specific master butchers who know how to properly process this meat.
