    Duck Gumbo!!!!!!!................it has a pic too

    Gumbo...by def is orka tomato soup, so anything else is just bonus This is a recipe I got from the Stuttgart World Champion Duck Gumbo winner. I modified slightly to reduce 1.cost 2.my taste 3. more duck

    Gumbo aint a science, have I'll list as we go some changes/ideas that sound good to me.


    FIRST.... a little work a few days before

    If you have not aged the duck...nows the time completely cover birds in mild salty water and refridge Min 24hrs. change water once or twice, but dont add more salt.

    Once aged, Marinate 24hrs in BBQ rub of choice, liquid smoke, alegro/dales/whatever you like.

    Also not a must but a time saver. Make your roux:

    roux can be made 50/50 or close fat/flour. For a lighter roux use butter (French roux)...or a Cajun roux use peanut oil, vegtable oil, bacon grease,..I used olive oil....or you can buy roux.


    Ingredients: (remember, add, delete,increase, decrease to your taste)

    1/2 C chopped onion...not too small
    1C celery
    1/2 C celery
    1T garlic
    3 Bay leaves
    1T Tony's
    1T Salt
    1T Crushed red pepper
    1/2C dried parsley
    1T thyme
    2T cummin
    2T smoked Paprika
    Sausage chopped.....heres where you can go crazy, use cajun sausage, deer, pork, beef......charizo!!!! whatever its your gumbo

      Lets start cookin!!

      In a large pot, fill half full of water.
      Bring to a boil then add duck (I used 9 Gadwall in this batch)..add ALL leftover marinate
      Add a few of each of the holy trinity also (onion, celery, bell pepper)..not all, just some
      Boil 30-40 min.

      Remove all duck from pot and allow to cool to touch.
      Cut into small bit sized pieces
      Add duck back to stock
      Add ALL vegtables
      Add ROUX at this time
      Add sausage

      Next add the following:
      Thyme
      Salt
      Cummin
      Garlic
      Chopped tomato (sorry forgot to add to ingredients) 10-16 oz can will work

      Boil This^^^^ 30-45min Covered

      Now add Chopped Orka
      Crushed red pepper
      smoked paprika
      Tonys

      Boil covered for another 10-15min



      Serve over rice...white, brown, dirty, wild.....go nuts

      Enjoy

            looks great brother w/ the exception of okra

            okra has a tendency to "slime" , it needs to be cut into peices and either deep fried, or pan fried with a little vinegar 1st to prevent it from sliming in a gumbo

            okra is used as a thickening agent, kida like file' in a gumbo


            love me some duck gumbo with a dark chocolate looking roux

                  Man that looks great. I cooked some once with a recipe a Cajun fellow from work gave me. The roux and everything else was awsome, but the duck was horrible. Maybe it's just these coastal Red Heads man was it livery. What preparations did you do to the duck besides boiling.

                    Just my usual. SoaK in salt water min 24 hrs- 4-5 days, changing a few times but dont add more salt.

                    Red heads are divers, they need more soak time, I usually wrap em in bacon and cook med rare...boiling can overcook em'. That will inhance the liver taste


                    Soak em 5 days then try em' again

                      Ditch the tomatoes and it might pass.

                              I'll have to try this sometime but less the okra. Gumbo looks good but not a fan of okra. Can eat it fried if overly cooked but not boiled. Not crazy about it then.
