| Had a pork chop for supper tonight. Store bought, no flavour, used chewing gum consistancy, the best part was the mushroom gravy. Are feral hogs better to eat than the mass produced crap in the store?

some of the feral hogs are great, they have a good texture to the meat. boars are harder to deal with thatn sows but its not too bad. ill take a feral hog over a pig anyday. to me the flavor stays better in the meat and it tenderizeds better.
btw i only kill about 35-50 a year, how much would shipping be to up there.

They're great eating. Just not every night of the year.
Most I have trapped in one week is 43. They're back and they're ripping up real estate. I'll have several traps out this weekend. Come and get 'em.
Whoever turns one loose ought to be tarred and feathered, drug behind a horse through cactus, and then burned at the stake. You don't even joke with such things around these parts. Those sorry lil bistirds costs thousands in pasture and fence repair.
Some you trap look like durocs. Others are wooly boogers. Some "game preseve" imported Russain Boar and put us all in this crisis. Your pasture can be fine one day. Over night it looks like it was carpet bombed. I have seen pictures with over 160 hogs in it.

| When it comes to pork, wild is what we eat. We take about 200 lbs of lean, acorn fed pork and 100 lbs of deer and have it made into smoke link sausage. And also, fresh sausage. Its good barbecued to. They don't have much side meat so we buy our bacon. There fun to hunt with dogs. We keep a pen full.
