What it is
Tender pieces of wild boar shoulder, slow-braised until fall-apart succulent, infused with the tartness of sour orange and served with tender chunks of christophine (chayote squash) and bell peppers in a rich, savory broth.
Key ingredients
Wild boar shoulder, sour orange juice, garlic, onion, bell peppers, christophine, beef broth, olive oil, thyme, allspice, Scotch Bonnet (optional), salt, pepper.
If you order it anyway
Ensure no flour or starch is used to thicken the braising liquid. Request a very limited amount of onion and bell pepper to keep carbs lower.
Watch out for
Onions, bell peppers, and christophine contribute natural carbs. Some braising liquids might use flour as a thickener, or include root vegetables.
