Grilled Duck Recipes

Steps:

• Set up a hardwood fire and let it burn to low-burning embers (see Cook's Note). Set up your grate for direct and indirect heat cooking.
• Pat the duck breasts dry. Liberally sprinkle with 4 to 5 tablespoons of salt and several grinds of pepper on both sides.
• Place the duck breasts skin-side down over direct heat. Grill, flipping as needed to avoid flare ups, until the skin renders its fat and is crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove the duck and allow it to rest for 10 minutes.
• Halve the duck breasts lengthwise, then slice into bite-size pieces. Transfer to a large bowl. Toss together with the rice powder, lemongrass, fish sauce, shallots, chiles, lime juice and garlic. Season with pepper.
• On a large platter, lay out the bean sprouts, carrots, cilantro, scallions, mint, Thai basil, purple radishes and watermelon radishes. To serve, place the duck laab on a lettuce leaf and top with the desired toppings.

Steps:

• Stir together the Worcestershire sauce, olive oil, hot sauce, garlic, and pepper. Add the duck breasts, and toss well to coat. Cover, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to overnight.
• Preheat a grill for medium-high heat.
• Grill the duck to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-well, depending on the size of the breast, and the temperature of the grill.

Steps:

• Combine the smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, five spice powder, dry mustard and some salt and pepper in a bowl. Using a sharp knife, score the skin of the duck so it has a 1/4-inch diamond pattern. Rub the spice mixture all over the duck.
• Heat a grill to medium (make sure it's not too hot since the key is to cook duck slowly to render the fat) and wipe down the grates with an oiled towel. Place the duck skin-side down on the grate and cook until the skin is seared and the fat is rendered, 4 to 5 minutes. (If there are occasional flare-ups from the fat, move the duck around on the grill to a new spot away from the flame each time.) Flip the duck over and place on a cooler part of the grill. Cook for an additional 5 minutes for medium-rare. Let rest for 5 to 7 minutes before cutting against the grain into thick slices.

Steps:

• Wash off the Duck with cold water on the outside and inside and pat dry with a paper towel.Mix the stuffing ingredients together in a large mixing bowl and then it inside of the Duck and use small sewers to hold the cavity closed. Put the sauce ingredients in a food processor and blend until well mixed. Heat the grill on medium heat (indirect heat; put the right and left burners on and leave the center burner off) and coat the grill with cooking spray. Place the Duck on the upper grill and cook for 2 hours. To serve:slice thin slices of the Duck and pour the sauce over the Duck.
