Always wonder what those big boars taste like? Do the boys eat them after they’ve finished driving around town with it on the back of the ute?

Nothing particularly wrong with them, but not fantastic either. We usually stored them for the local Marae's, and they seemed to come up pretty well when cooked in a Hangi. Or made them into sausages for ourselves. There are though, only so many sausages you could eat. But we had the choice of good pork from younger pigs. There were always members of the community who were very appreciative of any meat you could spare.
