1/4 t black pepper
|

4 lb saddle of wild boar (OR loin of pork with bone in)
|
||
1 lb black turtle beans
|
||
2 T olive oil
|
||
1/2 C diced salt pork
|
||
2 onions, chopped
|
||
3 cloves garlic, minced
|
||
1 Jalapeno pepper, seeded, deveined and minced
|

1 C cooked, smoked ham, diced (1 cup = 5 oz)

2 C beef broth
|
||
1 bay leaf
|

1 tsp chopped fresh oregano (or half that if dried)
|
||
1 tsp red wine vinegar
|
||
2 T dark rum
|
||
4 scallions, thinly sliced
|
||
2 eggs, hard cooked, sieved
|
||
|
||
In a medium bowl, combine the bacon drippings with the crushed
|
||
garlic, two tablespoons of the chili powder, the cumin, and freshly
|
||
ground pepper. Spread over the wild boar and let stand while
|
||
preparing the beans.
|
||
|
||
In a large pot, cover the beans with cold water. Heat to boiling and
|
||
boil for two minutes. Turn off the heat and let stand one hour.
|
||
Drain. Wipe out the pot and return beans, cover with cold water and
|
||
heat to boiling. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Drain.
|
||
|
||
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Cook the salt pork in boiling water
|
||
for five minutes. Drain and pat dry. Heat the oil in a heavy, deep
|
||
casserole. Stir in the salt pork and cook over medium heat until
|
||
golden, about 3 min. Stir in the onion, minced garlic, and Jalapeno
|
||
pepper. Cook 1 minute. Stir in the ham and cook two more minutes.
|
||
|
||
Stir the remaining chili powder into the onion mixture. Add the
|
||
beans, broth, bay leaf, oregano, vinegar and rum. Mix well. Place
|
||
the saddle of boar on top of the beans, cover and place in the middle
|
||
of the oven. Cook for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until internal meat
|
||
thermometer reads 170 degrees. Turn the meat twice and stir the
|
||
beans. Add more broth if dry.
|
||
|
||
Remove the meat and allow it to stand, covered, for 10 to 15 minutes.
|
||
Meanwhile, skim the fat from the chili. Cut the meat from the bone
|
||
and into thin slices. Layer it over the beans. If desired, stew,
|
||
covered, to tenderize the meat. Serve with hot rice and a sprinkling
|
||
of scallions and sieved eggs.
|
||
|
||
Serves 6 generously.
