If not cooking outdoors, I am cooking on the stovetop with my 14" carbon steel wok, 12" CI skillet, or in the oven with my two Lodge CI pizza pans, or two dutch ovens. I've also got a nifty Lodge carbon steel grill pan that rocks for veggies outdoors.
I think you will cook these just like you would any other St. Louis Cut ribs. Use your favorite rub, smoke until they are done, sauce or no sauce, etc...
Scotch: Current favorite- The Arran (anything by them), Glenmorangie 12yr Lasanta, sherry cask finished. The Balvenie Double Wood, also like Oban 18yr, and The Glenlivet Nadurra (Oloroso sherry cask finished) among others. Neat please.

Calling Jerod Broussard I know he hunts them, he'll likely know. My suspicion like jfmorris is cook them as you would regular pork ribs but the timing may be off if they're thinner and less fatty.

Same theory as commodity pork ribs. Trim as much of the fat as reasonable off. If it is a true wild hog, the fat can be very gamey. If trapped as a shoat and fed out on corn not as much. Then give it about 2 hours of smoke, 1-1.5 hours in the crutch with some butter, as they are much leaner(till tender, think bend test) then just long enough out of the crutch to tack up the sauce.
Oh and I like wild hog with a sweeter sauce and rub. I like the old rule of if they eat it, then it taste good together. Favorites for me are a Dewberry jalapeño glaze, or peach habanero. As far as rubs, and brown sugar based rub will do.
I am not great at taking pictures, but they came out really good! The picture of the final product does not do it justice. I would suggest them for something different. Thanks all for your input!
