Javelina Stew

[WoodMoose]

made a Cajun style Stew with javelina hind quarter meat and taters

browned the meat in a bit of bacon fat and then removed from the dutch oven. Added the chopped onions, green pepper, celery and garlic to the pan and sauteed until the onions started going translucent,,, then added the roux and a quart of water and simmered for 30 minutes to let the roux thicken back up. Then added the meat back and cooked on low for 30 minutes, added the potatoes and cooked another 30 minutes. Seasoned with tony's, bit of hot sauce and worchestershire sauce.

served over a bit of rice

I'm full and happy

Named off the trinity and I’m like “oh, that’s southern”. Said “Roux” and now I’m just drooling. Authentic and appealing! As much as I’m happy there’s no wild hogs in Montana, I do wish it were a huntable option nearby. Looks delish!

Looks good What flavor does the meat have?I know javelinas aren't pigs so I'm curious.

They are remotely (like 40 million years or some such) related to pigs

I’m not much for comparing meats with descriptions, like taste like chicken, but it is reminiscent of a young feral hog

It’s really good. The backstrap was good. That concoction that I just made was good but heck you can make most anything good if you cook it Cajun style

It’s surprising good with no gamey taste. I’ve killed 2 and both were tasty.
