so a few weeks ago i was able to get a duck breast, took it out of freezer, did a quick though in a pot of water.
I decided to render the fat so pated the skin dry added salt on skin and into a cold cast iron pan.

once the skin started to separate i removed it and put duck on grill directly, added a little pepper. cooked until done about 165 IT, also finished skin in pan.

I would feast on that. Haven't had duck in quite some time. Gotta start hunting waterfowl again.
 
Look beautifully cooked!! I’ve eaten so many things in many places but amazingly I’ve not had duck. What’s the flavor like?
 
Nice job on that duck Brad. It looks really good.

Point for sure
Chris
