I've got some puldu sitting in a brine as we speak. Plan on smoking these for a gumbo. Problem is they have been skinned. 2 1/2 hours at 215....am I going to end up with duck jerky?

Would I be better off cooking them confit style?

Have you ever used them before?

Never smoked ducks with no skin before, no

I think you may need to cut back your smoke time 30 minutes +

Would injecting the birds make a difference?

When I smoke my duck (see thread below) the skin is on. However I smoke the ducks just long enough to get some good smoke flavor. I cook the duck meat after it is smoked. My ducks smoked for 2 hours. I'd cut it back to about 1.5 hours and take it off and either finish cooking in a pan or let it cook in the gumbo if you let your gumbo simmer for a few hours

I wouldn't inject birds I was going to put in a gumbo.

To hell with it. Just gonna use chicken and save the ducks for pot frying.

Skin the chicken. Flour and fry both the ducks and the chicken. Cool and debone. Use the frying oil in the roux. Trust me.

Otis what about draping the birds in bacon to sort of act like skin? I'm talking for smoking...

People eat those things?

I didn't go there with him. I've never eaten one. I went the fried chicken route above because that method would make an old shoe taste divine.

Your best way of cooking duck is quarter the breast and make poppers out of them and wrap in bacon and grill.

If you have coots then use the gizzards in the gumbo. Thats really the only thing they are good for in my opinion.
I have a black iron pot that disagrees with this statement. Pot Roasting ducks is the best way to cook them.
