Don't be a bore; make Boar!

Wooop! Josie cooked for me! The lovely little nubbin made me boar ragu the other day while I worked! We found a fatty boar shank at The Meat Hook and immediately purchased it--they cryovac-ed the thing for us, too--with visions of boar ragu dancing through our hungry minds. I wasn't sure when I'd have time to braise the thing, but I was pleasantly surprised when Josie emailed to say the shank was simmering away.

Sloshed over eggy pappardelle pasta and generously doused with pecorino and rosemary, that ragu simply cannot be beat. I will emphasize that the rosemary is quite key--something about it pairs gorgeously with the boar meat.

Here's the recipe that Josiah used. Thanks, Babbo!
