Ingredients

4 wild boar chops
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp (30 ml) fresh rosemary, chopped
1 / 4 cup (60 ml) olive oil
1 tbsp (15 ml) balsamic vinegar
Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

1. **Prepare the Marinade**: In a bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped rosemary, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
2. **Marinate the Chops**: Place the wild boar chops in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chops, ensuring each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
3. **Grill the Chops**: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chops from the marinade and let them come to room temperature for about 15 minutes. Grill the chops for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
4. **Rest and Serve**: Remove chops from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy with a side of roasted vegetables like carrots, potatoes, and bell peppers.
