Shot it, clean it & going to eat it! Good for you! Take the backstraps out; the two long strips of meat on each side of the backbone. Cut them into 1" slices, sort of like a scallop. Marinade in your frig over night in your favorite citrus based marinade. I like something called Tequilla-Lime sauce. Wrap each piece in a piece of bacon & skewer with a tooth pick. Grill 'til well done. Delicious!

Grill or oven roast the hind quarters with pineapple & apple slices. Plenty of sweet BBQ sauce. Slow roast until bone comes loose. GREAT! The rest of the javalena is pretty much a waste.

BTW: Javalena or collared peccary are not pigs but are of the tayassuidae family, more related to rats & squirrels.

Enjoy...
