Smoking Gamebirds

 2 quarts water
 1 cup salt
 1 1/2 tbs. brown sugar
 3 tbs. lemon juice
 1 tbs. liquid garlic
 1 tsp. liquid onion

 Make a brine out of the above proportions. Place birds in a ziplock
 bag, and squeeze out all of the air. Let birds brine for at least
 3 days. Remove from brine, stuff with onion and dry rice. Hot Smoke
 until done (180 degrees internal). I have used this for geese,
 pheasants, and grouse. The brine removes a lot of the wild taste.
 If your birds do not have the skin on, baste with oil as needed or
 place strips of bacon or salt pork on the top to self baste.
 



Apple Duck
 

1 duck
1 c uncooked rice

6 oz frozen orange juice thawed u
3/4 tsp. mustard
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup  water

Directions: Wipe ducks dry inside and out, season with salt and
pepper, and place in roasting pan close together, breast sides up.
Cover with strips of bacon. Roast at 400 ° for 25 minutes or
until done to taste. Meanwhile, heat to boiling in small saucepan the
orange juice, garlic, mustard, ginger and salt. Remove from heat and
during the last 10 minutes of roasting, remove bacon from birds and
brush them with the mixture. Mix cornstarch with 1/4 cup of the water
and add to remaining orange sauce. Pour in remaining water and stir
over low heat until sauce thickens. Place ducks on heated platter,
slice and serve with the orange sauce.


Aromatic Duck

Yield: 4 servings

1 duckling
2 tsp. peppercorns
1 tsp. thyme, whole dried
2 bay leaf; crumbled
6 cloves
1 tbs.  kosher salt
1 tbs.  sugar, brown
1 tbs.  brandy
1 garlic clove
5 red cabbage leaves

Cut off the wing tips from the duck and wrap them up with the giblets
for making stock.  Pull out and discard any loose interior fat. Rinse
the duck inside and out and pat dry, inside and out. Mix together in
a spice mill or mortar the peppercorns, thyme, bay leaves, cloves and
salt. Grind to a fine texture. Combine in a small dish with the brown
sugar and brandy. Place the duck in a heavy plastic bag that fits
snugly. Rub half the spice mixture inside the duck and the remaining
half over the outside. Place the garlic in the duck's cavity. Close
the bag tightly and refrigerate 24 hours, rubbing the surface and
squeezing in the spices occasionally. Remove the duck from the bag
and gently pat it dry. Set it on a cake rack over a plate and return
it, uncovered, to the refrigerator for another 24 hours or so,
turning it once. Pat the duck to dry it thoroughly (if not already
dry) and let it come to room temperature (at least two hours).
Preheat the oven to 300°. Using a large needle and white cotton
thread, sew closed the neck and tail openings.  Place the duck on its
side on a rack set in a roasting pan. Roast the duck for 45 minutes.

With the needle, prick the fatty parts on the upper side; do not
prick deeply enough to pierce the flesh. Grab the duck by the legs
and turn it over onto the other side. Increase the oven temperature
to 350° and roast 30 minutes. Price the fatty parts on the upturned
side and then turn the duck onto its breast. Increase the heat to 400°
and roast about 30 minutes longer, or until the duck is deeply
browned and most of the fat has melted away. Remove from the oven and
let cool 1 to 3 hours before serving.

To serve: Using a heavy cleaver or poultry shears, cut through flesh and bone of the duck carefully to make about 12 to 14 serving pieces, keeping the skin neatly intact on each piece. Spread the cabbage leaves over a platter, shallow basket or wooden bowl and arrange the duck on them. If the duck is to be served hot, arrange the cut pieces in a pan in a single layer, cut side down, and roast in a preheated 350° oven 15 minutes.

Duck Casserole with Pinto Beans
 Yield: 4 Servings

 2 c brown pinto beans
 1 duck, 5-6 pounds, cut into serving pieces
 seasoned flour
 3 strips salt pork, cut into small dice
 1 onion, finely chopped
 pinch basil
 freshly ground black pepper
 1/2 tsp. dry mustard

 Soak the beans in cold water overnight. Drain, and simmer them in
 lightly salted water until just tender. Drain again, reserving the
 liquid, and place them in a casserole. Dredge the pieces of duck
 with seasoned flour. Try out the salt pork in a skillet till crisp.
 Place the bits of pork in the casserole with the beans and brown
 the duck quickly in the pork fat. Transfer the duck to the casserole.
 Add the onion, basil, pepper and mustard. Work the pieces of duck
 down into the casserole so that the beans cover them; do not crush
 the beans.

 Add boiling water or bean liquid just to cover, cover the casserole,
 and place in a 350 ° F oven. Cook until the duck and beans
 are well done - 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Add more water if necessary, but
 when done, the casserole should not have too much liquid. This
 would be excellent with some buttered turnips and an endive and
 beet salad.


Made this last night, as a spur of a moment creation, and it turned out
rather good, so I thought maybe you others would enjoy it too. I used
left-over roasted duck breast but any boneless, skinless piece will do.
I wouldn't try this chicken, think it would get too dry.

Duck in a puddle
 
 

1/2 lb duck meat without skin
1/2 head romaine lettuce -- chopped
1 avocado
4 rashers bacon
4 slices day old bread (for croutons) -- take off the crust
2 cloves garlic -- chopped
1 orange

DRESSING:

6 tbs. olive oil
2 cloves garlic -- crushed
1 lime ( juice of) about 2 tbs.

Fry bacon rashers  in a pan, and when well done (i.e. very dark), take
the rashers off the pan and drain on paper towels. Put aside until cold.

Make the  croutons. Remove the crust from the bread slices and chop the
bread in small cubes. Pour some oil in a hot pan, and add coarsely

dish. Peel and slice the avocado and add it on top of the lettuce. Slice
the orange to 4 thick slices, add them on the lettuce. Press the juice
on the end bits (of the orange) on the lettuce. Add the sliced avocado,
bacon crumbled into small pieces and the croutons. Pour a little oil in
a frying pan and add the duck in thin slices. Fry a half a minute, add
the sesame seeds and fry about 1-2 minutes until the meat is thoroughly
heated. Pour the meat/sesame seed mix on top of the salad and pour the
dressing over the meat. Serve with good bread.

Braised Wild Duck Or Goose

2 large or 4 small ducks(or 1 medium goose)
coarse salt as needed
8 bay leaves
1/4 cup peppercorns
1 tsp. leaf thyme
4 whole allspice
1 apple, quartered
2 ribs celery, snapped in half
1 medium carrot, coarsely chopped
1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup cooking oil
1 cup dry red burgundy, divided
1 cup brown veal stock OR 2 bouillon cubes dissolved in water
1/2 tsp. cornstarch
2 tbs. dry red burgundy Or water
1 heaping tbs. cold butter, if desired

Preheat oven to 400° F. Rub ducks inside and out with salt.
Choose a roasting pan that is large enough to accommodate the birds
without crowding. Put the pan in the oven to preheat. Place bay
leaves, peppercorns, thyme, allspice, celery and apple chunks inside
the ducks, dividing evenly between ducks.

Tress the ducks with butcher twine so that they retain their shape
while cooking. Pour oil into the hot roasting pan and place the ducks
in, breast side up. Brown for approximately 20 minutes, turning after
10 minutes to brown all sides. Lower oven temperature to 325° F. Add onions and carrots and turn the birds breast side
down. Cover and cook 20 more minutes. Then add half the wine and
half the stock and continue to braise the birds for 1-1/2 hours more,
covered. Turn the birds occasionally (every 20 minutes or so) during
the braising, adding the remaining wine and stock as needed to keep
the roasting pan moist. Should all liquid evaporate, add a little water.

To test for doneness, pinch drumsticks with fingers. If they don't
yield, continue cooking. Transfer cooked birds to a baking sheet and
cover to keep warm. Strain juice from the roasting pan into a small
saucepan.

Carefully skim off all fat from the juice and discard. If more than a 1/2
cup of juice remains, boil it briefly to reduce the amount. Dissolve
arrowroot or cornstarch in 2 tablespoons burgundy or water and add
to juice to thicken. Stir, bring to a boil and remove from heat. Add the
butter and stir again. Taste and correct the seasonings if necessary.
Before serving, split the ducks in half lengthwise, removing loose
bones from inside. Place the ducks on a cookie sheet in a 500 °
F. oven for approximately 10 minutes to crisp. Serve immediately.
Serves 4.
