But, but...I'm Boo.  I also drive a Ford.

 

So many questions...Do I have a doppelganger up north?  Is he my evil twin?  Or maybe he's the good twin, who can tell anymore?  Why do I always assume that with twins there is a good one and an evil one?

 

Fire up the Mystery Machine gang, we're going to Ohio!

As a twin I can assure you your assumptions are correct! 😂

So you're saying you have a good twin?

Its with Michael Keaton as a tenant from hell. Its old 1990 but good imo. 

Going to take a nap . Surely it 11 p.m. somewhere (feels like it should be) :)

Your description seems familiar now. Humm ........ maybe I saw it and just don't remember? The warden would likely agree with that theory 🤭

Are those people in the movie or just random people you know that you're naming to confuse me more than I normally am?

Just finished making a Raspberry Sauce for the roast duck I'll be slow cooking on my Weber Smoker tomorrow. Guess I should have put it in a white bowl for better color contrast lol.

Never cooked a duck before. Hope it turns out OK.

 

Dry brining it tonight. Will season tomorrow morning and stuff some quartered oranges in the body cavity then throw it on the charcoal smoker for probably 3 hours at about 300F. Have an Orange/Maple Glaze I will add while cooking.

Here's the results of the 'smoke a duck' experience today :) 

Duck was dry-brined last night in the fridge overnight.

Fired up the smoker and prepared the duck with some Kosher Salt, Coarse grind black pepper and some orange zest rubbed onto the skin. brush on some of the Orange/Honey/Maple glaze. Stuff the cavity with orange quarters, onions, thyme and rosemary.

 

Onto the smoker it goes at 300F:

After 1 hour cooking time with spritzing the glaze every 15 minutes:

Added some apple wood chunks for the smoke flavor:

After 2 hours cook time:

Internal temp was 155F so I pulled it and wrapped in foil for 15 mins. resting time.

 

Carved and on the table after resting :)

Plated with the Raspberry sauce made from scratch last night:

Turned out better than I thought it would as I've never cooked duck before so was a little intimidated. The only lesson I really learned after the cook was finish is that my original time calculation was off by 1 hour. Only took 2 hours and I calculate 3 originally. I always go by internal meat temp rather than recommended cooking time otherwise you risk under or over cooking.

OMG! You need to start doing this for us at least every other weekend. My stomach is growling and my mouth is watering! I just finished my own pathetic meal too. HaHa Your photography is excellent by the way. You’re so talented. I’m just going to sit over here and drool for awhile. 
also, I overcook everything. I ruin everything I cook. I’m pathetic at cooking. I don’t know how my children survived me. LOL Thank you for your attention to detail and I do love those plates. 

G’day 

Great looking bird. Not a duck lover myself but my eldest loves his duck. Never thought of using a bullet smoker for duck. So any other hints are appreciated. Did notice you you slashed the skin to let out that excess fat. 

Regards Chris
