Cider Glazed Duck Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • In large saucepan bring apple cider to a boil. Continue boiling for about 3 hours until reduced to one pint. The resulting glaze will be intensely flavoured, rich, and thick.
  • Remove neck, giblets, wing tips, and any excess fat from duck; reserve. Rinse duck and pat dry. Prick the duck all over with a fork. Place apples inside the body cavity. Tie the legs closed and set aside.
  • In a 13 X 9-inch heavy-gauge foil pan, place neck, giblets, wing tips, reserved fat, onion, carrot, and celery. Season with salt and pepper. Place the duck on top of the mixture.
  • Place pan in centre of cooking grate. Grill duck 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until internal temperature reaches 180° F (82° C). Halfway through grilling time, start glazing duck with the cider reduction (pour into a plastic squeeze bottle for cooking use, or use a basting brush). Continue glazing every 15 minutes until duck is done. Remove duck from grill and let stand 10 minutes.
  • Discard neck, giblets, wing tips, fat, vegetables, and apples. Serve duck with remaining cider glaze, if desired. Store any leftover glaze in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks and use on other grilled poultry or pork.
