Title: Christmas Dinner - MAK Smoked Duck & Dressing
Post by: TentHunteR on December 27, 2013, 03:29:41 AM

My friend Kevin came up from Columbus to spend the day with us and he loves smoked duck. No problem that happens to have become our Christmas tradition the last several years.


I started out by baking up a few loaves of crusty no-knead bread (2 loaves of whole wheat & 1 regular) Some will be used for making smoked dressing. Thanks Smoker Pete for the Recipe.

Two ducks - spatchcocked, skin scored & seasoned, then onto the MAK with Apple pellets.

About half way through add a pan of Dressing.

Dessert was a smoked apple crisp (but I didn't get any pics - See Dee, you're not alone).

Oh, it happened...  but after eating the duck, stuffing, mashed taters, collards, etc...   well, that smoke-kissed Apple Crisp disappeared quicker than I was capable of thinking about grabbing the camera.    ::)


Tammy (who doesn't care for desserts normally) even ate two helpings of that Apple Crisp!  :o
