re: Duck fan in need of a good gumbo recipe

Take the gizzards and the orange sauce out of the cavity. Into the cavity insert a chopped onion, stalk of celery, and a chopped granny smith apple, coat the outside with evoo, and season with yourchoice of seasoning. If you have it use a roasting pan with a rack, put a bit of water in the pan. Cooking time should be about 1.5 hours at 375. Save the drippings, and reduce it to one third volume, us it in jambalaya water ratio. Boil the gizzards and neck, debone neck and chop the gizzards add to the mix.

Forgot one thing, buy a jar of BTB chicken flavor make two cups and baste the bird while cooking. Also if you want smoke flavor, iject a dilute solution of liquid smoke, garlic butter and water into the bird.
