roast boar

Feast's main pig

Roast boar is wild pig cooked by roasting, typically whole or in large cuts.

The dish evokes medieval feasts and rustic celebration—a boar's head on a platter appears in Christmas traditions and Renaissance imagery.

Modern preparations often involve slow-roasting with herbs and fruit: The centerpiece was a roast boar with apples.
