Duck suggestions?

[SmokyMose]

So I wanted to do something different for Memorial Day and picked up this at Meijer this morning.

Any suggestions as far as seasoning? Rub? Sauce?
I'm planning to use a rotisserie over open flame.....

No help here Mose, I've cooked up a ton of wild ducks, hot, fast, and rare. I think domestic duck is a whole different ball game. I believe Z zippy12 did one a little while back that got a ride, maybe he'll chime in. RAY

Thanks! I looked at a couple of AllRecipe posts and one of them also stressed not to overcook.....

I love duck key is not to over cook and at the last 5 to 10 min use the high heat to crisp up the skin. Nothing like a crispy duck skin. Ohh and watch flame ups duck produce a lot of fat as they render.

It’s a deboned & skinned duck, wrapped with a deboned & skinned chicken, then wrapped with a deboned turkey. Here is the one I did.

TURDUCKEN is a success - lot's of photo's

As a lot of you know I have been researching doing a turducken for Thanksgiving this year. I practiced deboning a chicken last week & it was easier than I thought. I know this sounds crazy, but if you exercise the bird before you debone it, it relaxes the tendons & makes it easy to just cut the...

I could really go for that, if someone else made it LOL! What a lot of work!
Where would you find a needle like that?

I don’t know where Judy got the needle at, but she does a lot of sewing, so I guess she just had this one. For what, I don’t know.
