Wild Boar Stew

Iowahorse's Note:

Or you can just substitute domestic pork. I do quite often. Although I have now decided that if you do go with domestic pork, organically raised pork seems to substitute the best.

This stew is wonderful! I accidentally made it with too much curry powder the first time, but my family thought it was even better than when I made it correctly the second time. I used wild hog meat.
