I was thinking about smoking a duck. What kind of wood would you recommend, spice combination, length of time and temp. As you can tell I have no idea how to do duck, and I know duck can be difficult. I appreciate the help.

I smoked Goose Breasts for my dad last year. I used the WSM and apple wood. Very light on the smoke wood. Keep your internal temps like chicken. As far as rubs, I used Wolfe Rub Original on the Goose and dad loved it. I made a rasberry sauce to go with it. Good luck and lets see some food porn.

| Mark from Hogg Feathers was telling us earlier today at the Meadow Creek open house how he once tried to smoke a goose and he had some trouble with it, but he's since figured out some better ways to cook one. You may want to check with him on duck. |

Actually, I smoked a goose in a WSM and eventuyally had to throw away the water pan. I couldn't get the gamey scent out of it no matter how much I cleaned it. I have smoked ducks in various cookers including: an ECB, WSM and the Lang 60.
I tend to smoke turkey and duck much like ribs or pork, at 225 - 250, with a wood that compliments the flavor of the flesh, like cherry or apple for duck, and oak for turkey.
I've never smoked wild duck, so I cannot extoll any advice for their leanerflesh or gamier flavor.
Hope this helps.
Mark
