Boar is excellent and makes great pate.

I made boar wellington a few years back
my mate still goes on about how good it was

That sounds many fucking kinds of awesome
I did beef wellington for Christmas dinner last year, otherwise I think I'd have a bash at that. I might do wild boar in calvados instead though.

I made a wild mushroom duxelle
and used a rich port-filled paté as well. it was most excellent

Yeah, I used a wild mushroom duxelle
and I also made the paté, except it was chock full of brandy rather than port.

It's such a piece of piss to do, you wouldn't even believe
although it's hellish fattening. I can gaz you the recipe if you want to try making it for Christmas?

Actually, would you?
I'd definitely like to give it a shot, and Christmas is the only time I really make an effort to try something new. And from the looks of things the only time I'll be allowed to eat pate

Sure
I had a good one for duck, port and orange paté as well, I'll send 'em over when I get home.
