Leafing through the cookbook received as a gift from Golly I saw this recipe last night we had dinner at the in-laws and I decided to use it as a tester to have two opinions more.
Ingredients:
Duck 1.9 kg
1 Orange
1 onion
salt
pepper
For the Glaze
2 cup orange marmalade
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 Bourboun
For the sake of time I made a quick brine for 6 hours with 50 grams of salt per liter then after I dry the duck salt and pepper the inside and I put the orange and onion cut into 4 .. for the ' outside some oil and pepper .. only for the glaze is enough to combine the ingredients and let simmer for a few minutes .
I prepared the kettle with rotisserie kit with heavy briquettes to keep a high T and for not refill after 1 hour , I put the kit smoked with hickory chips , set the Maverick 163F and I have roasted for about 75 minutes to a temperature always above 428F ..i had to duck glaze the last 30 minutes with the glaze but the laws have preferred it to serve it in part . The result was amazing , they were very juicy thighs and chest slightly less but both savory , soft and tasty and the frosting that I had above docket was something exceptional . A final consideration should be made for the skin which unfortunately was crisp in only a few points but I think for the duck is very difficult to get for the amount of fat contained in it ... my guests said they enjoyed all great.
