BBQ Duck Recipes

I’ve had a lot of requests for BBQ duck recipes and smoked duck so I’ve had a play around with a few old ideas and a few new ones too to develop some great flavours that are perfect for the barbecue. If you’re into duck then try them out and let me know what you think.

Duck is a really fatty bird (unless you've just shot a wild duck) so part of the challenge with any recipes is to either cut the fat off or to find ways of letting the fat drain during the cooking process. In the kebab recipe you’ll simply cut the fat away from the breast, dice the meat and then you’re ready to go but if you’re cooking breast or the whole bird you’ll need to score the skin of the duck.

TIP - When scoring the skin only lightly cut the surface and into the fat. Don’t go right down into the meat otherwise you’ll end up with a dry bird.

For the Grill:-

Duck and Dried Apricot Kebabs - Duck and fruits were just made for each other.

Grilled Duck Breast - How best to use the skin and fat to get a delicious result.

Spit Roasted Duck - Smothered with an apricot and vermouth glaze.

For the Smoker:-

Traditional Smoked Duck - This one is for the whole duck so only start if you've got plenty of time.

Smoked Duck Peking Style - Rubbed with five spice and more to give you that Oriental flavor.

Smoked Duck Breast - All you need to know to get a great result.

Smoked Duck Breast Salad
- Don't just use smoked duck, you can do this one with grilled breast too.

Apple Smoked Duck Breast - Delicious with homemade apple sauce. An overnight brine is required so this is one for those sunny Autumn days.

If you're into shooting and the season is just starting then it's time to equip your barbecue and patio area with some functional and decorative lighting.
