Inobuta Cuisine

A hybrid that takes the best of both worlds—wild boar and pig. Inobuta cuisine, a local gourmet specialty of Susami Town, features this rare ingredient that the town is proud of. Inobuta was first created in 1970. The then-mayor of Susami Town donated a male wild boar to the prefectural livestock experimental station, where it was bred with a female pig. The resulting meat combines the rich umami of wild boar with the tenderness of pork, offering a deep flavor with minimal gamey odor. The town even established a parody nation called the 'Inobutan Kingdom,' and Inobuta has become a beloved specialty alongside the Inobuta Derby. When enjoyed in shabu-shabu or hot pots, you can taste the richness of the fat paired with the savory deliciousness of the lean red meat. It is a dish you can only encounter here.
