I gotta do a duck in my smoker too... this looked really nice. surprisingly dark. must have been the syrup and the high heat at the end....
I think I'll just rub mine in salt....
Joe is right, duck fat is heaven. I never have less than 1-2 cups on hand....
And yeah potatoes and duck fat are one of those perfect pairings. Like roasted walnuts, gorgonzola cheese, Colheita port and fresh baguettes....
