thought duck was horrible for a long time, was blown away when a buddy cooked it medium rareish with nothing but salt and fresh ground pepper in a skillet as you would a steak. It was delicious!! Was cooking it wrong, duck is not meant to be cooked well done

I can’t bad mouth you for doing this since I have done something similar. And you can wrap a stick in bacon and it would be delicious.

Me and my buddy shot some mallards on our lease one morning and when we got back to camp he said we were gonna have some fresh duck off the the grill for dinner that night. Well, he marinated them in Italian dressing for a few hours and put them on the grill. They smelt and looked awesome. When we sat down to eat and I took the first bite out of them, he said “whatcha think?”. I responded that the tasted just like the muddy water we shot them landing in.

About 2hrs later I marinated some grey ducks from the marsh in water for 2 days then put them in milk for 2hrs before I soaked them in some McCormicks marinade. I pan seared some potatoes and put the duck, potatoes and onions on kabobs and put them on the grill for 2-3 minutes on each side. They were so good, my extremely picky family devoured them.

At the end of the day...duck is an acquired taste...kinda like beer

Think I'll keep killin' em and donating them to the homeless. Anything can be made edible with all that prep and spices. Have you tried bacon wrapped dog turds.....? they say their good.

I love eating ducks, I chicken fry the hell out of them with gravy and mashed potatoes.

The crap ducks (ring necks, redheads, etc) have a slight liver taste, but I like liver so it works out.

I love ducks. Any duck hunters in houston that wanna drop theirs off with me to lighten their burden, I'll gladly help them out... lol
I like brining them, then roasted or stuffed. I want to smoke one sometime.

beer can duck with a mallard or gadwall is amazing. Also deep fried like a turkey.


Ring-necks and blue bills become jalapeno poppers.

Not making fun of you for eating them, just saying anything you have to "doctor" up that much to make it edible says a lot about the taste of the original item. Donate them to keep from wasting them. I know different people have different taste and like different things. Sorry if I offended you, unbunch your panties, please.

Am I hypocritical if I like to hunt them but not eat them ?

This is another great way to try them. Definitely one of my favorites. Teal, mallard, and wood ducks are the three I have tried like this.

Mudhole Ducks

Got to agree Mallards /Wood Ducks/and other Grain Field ducks outstanding...But those Bay/saltwater mudhole ducks taste like Oyster Mud..

If I pretend to be homeless can I have your ducks?

Smoked Wood duck. You can wrap the legs in bacon or foil to keep from drying them out. Bacon taste better than foil so that’s what I usually use.
