I get asked a good bit to post pictures and recipes of my smoked duck gumbo, so here it is for 2015. I will post pictures as I go.

2 smoked ducks stuffed with apples, onions, and bell peppers for 3 hours with Apple wood. Smoked it long enough to get some good smoke flavor, but not to cook it.

And the reserved duck fat from the smoker. Will get some additional reserved from the stock, and saving some bacon drippings as well to use for the roux. Will more than likely have to supplement with veg oil to get the right quantity.

I'll be making a seafood gumbo as well. All of this is for a NYE party at the house. Plan to cook the stock for the duck today, and peel the shrimp, and cook the base for the seafood gumbo today (everything but the seafood).

GOAT Gumbo thread of 2015, and it hasn't even made it through one ingredient.

Nice, that's how I pot roast my wild ducks. Have you ever made your gumbo with wild duck or goose?

Sorry, made the stock and am currently drinking some bourbon at the bar. Ducks are farm raised from Alexander's. Took me an hour to debone and defat those bastards. Have a pick of the stock but am a little drunk but I'll update more tomorrow when I make the gumbo.

Gumbo will be cooked today. Smoked the ducks Monday, made the stock yesterday, and will start cooking the gumbo today. I'll be posting pics to keep you guys interested. Took an extended adult beverage break yesterday.
