So ive been brining some duck breasts from yesterday and today in separate bags. After draining the bloody water from the yesterday breasts I noticed they smelled very sour, like spoiled milk. i just recovered them with brine and didnt worry about it. Drained again just now and they smell like a big bag of mashed up assholes (more sour)

are they bad? they were cleaned 2 hours after last bird was shot, and I even put them on ice for the hour ride home because of the heat outside.

I've kept ducks on ice for days without any problem . I definitely wouldn't eat them if they smelled sour though

What'd you brine in? Was there a spoon in there? I had one earlier in the year, last bird shot all teal except it......it was rotten, inedible I tell you

Mashed up assholes??

Hmm...wrap um in bacon with cream cheese and you'll be fine.

I wouldn't eat them if they smelled that bad.

yep i had 1 spoony in each bag, now the bag of birds from today is sour smelling too. I usually soak them in some tonys and water in freezer and just store them like that and never had a smell issues.

Brine was the following:
metric shite ton of salt
few spoonfuls of brown sugar
covered with water in gallon ziploc bag.

oh well, i was making some duck sausage, now its just gonna be pork sausage

Rotten assholes or pork sausage.


Good choice, but I hate having to chunk something out
