I like to make Poppers out of them, as well as the rest of the duck.
Butterfly, insert jalapeño slice with cream cheese and wrap w/bacon. Put on grill, don’t overcook.

I fixed a bunch of Mallard and Teal hearts salted, peppered and broiled. Kids destroyed them! Also grilled some-very good. (For the record, livers are pretty good too)

Sear them in a pan with butter. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook them rare or med rare for best results. In my opinion they are the best meat on the duck.

I have a package of nothing but hearts and gizzards. I can’t wait to get them in a black skillet. Butter salt pepper and a little shot of Worcestershire

Feed ours to the barn cat most of the time.

But the ones I keep and cook, simply butter in a black iron skillet.

Put them in your favorite marinate for a few hours.
Skewer and grill them until mad rare.
Baste then with the leftover marinate while on the pit.

Ate hearts and gizzards once. We cooked a deer stew and threw them in when it was getting close to being done. They were the best part of the stew.

Put them on a 1/0 hook, cast overboard, catch catfish, fry said fish.

We’ve been brining ours most of the day...pop into a marinade for 2-3 hrs...lots of butter in a super hot cast iron skillet and sprinkle with salt/pepper. Cook a minute or so on each side and enjoy hot. Been doing our ducks and specs like this all season too except we pop in the oven for 4-5 mins after seared on both sides...like you’d do a steak. So damn good.

Also, we fried some hearts a few yrs ago. Salt/pepper and drop in the freeze for a minute or so. Damn good too.

How do you end up with a bunch of duck hearts? I cook the gizzards and hearts with my ducks......

But, if I had a bunch of hearts...I guess I would batter and fry them

We killed 16 Mallards and a couple teal that morning. Makes for a lot of hearts

IMO the heart is the best part of the duck. Marinate with a dry red wine, Worcestershire, and garlic. Then sear them in a cast iron. Seared duck hearts go great over washed spinach with some kind of greek or vinaigrette dressing.

Put them on a hook for catfish, catch catfish, fry small catfish whole. That's the best way by far.

NVM I see someone beat me too it..
