    Pan Seared Pekin Duck With Black Currant Sauce & Roasted Baby Potato’s

    Thanks Chris! It's a nice rotation meal to spice things up! Not bad.....about the price of a filet, I sure wish I could get them local. That is the price they ship to "residential" if you buy 24 (commercial) you can get them down to 16 per two!

    You are welcome and glad I could share and that both you and the wife enjoyed! Mrs C went oh yes use the slurry sparingly as it only needs a little and will thicken as it reduces….the butter makes it silky so that was a good add…. We are going to use it on some skirt steak next….. it would...

    Pan Seared Pekin Duck With Black Currant Sauce & Roasted Baby Potato’s

    Red's Santa Maria Build - A Custom Grill for JIMSMOKES!

    Its coming together nicely! The brasero looks nice and yes they are usually open in the front and a partial over the fire area to keep the heat focused on making coals. My only Q or Suggestion is to cut "passage way" at brick level between the brasero and cooking chamber? Often times you just...

    Pan Seared Pekin Duck With Black Currant Sauce & Roasted Baby Potato’s

    Hey just a thought but duck thighs and legs are made for slow cooking…. Ie I think a tin pan with some duck layered out then 225 till it is fall off the bone….a smoked version/variation of confit. That would be perfect for salads and pasta dishes

    Pan Seared Pekin Duck With Black Currant Sauce & Roasted Baby Potato’s

    lol thanks lcb! I hunted lots of duck as a kid but most them went to the smoke house or braised…. The pan seared mid rare wasn’t a thing…. Yea the Muscovy is the real deal too.
