If you smoke a wild boar, you are going to have a certified piece of ****. The only way I've ever cooked one that was edible was to either grind it up into sausage or to slice the tenderloin into chops and marinate them in something strong for a few days (Italian dressing?), then grill them over direct heat on a Weber.

A sow or barrow (denutted wild hog), however, is delicious, every bit as good as storebought pork, just not as fatty. It will need to be wrapped for a longer time than regular pork.
 
Wild pigs, yes. Delicious. I kill a few every year and keep for chops, ribs, roasts, loins , sausage, etc, all good. Wild boar? Nope. Not gonna do it. We drop em and leave em for the buzzards and coyotes, and sometimes even they wont eat it. You wont do it but one time Maybe with a small one under 100lbs, but its not a pleasant experience.
