Default Duck breast for dinner

I usually make this as an appetizer but thought it would also make a great dinner.

Brined 2 breasts for about 4 hours, rinsed under the tap and let them dry in the fridge for a few hours.

Cooked on the kettle, fat side down over the coals for 2-3 minute or so to get the fat warmed up. Then indirect to about 125F with some cherry chunks and fat side up. Finished by giving the fat a little crust over the coals.

Moist, tender and full of flavor.

The brine:

100gr of salt
100 gr of sugar
2 tbsp white pepper
2 tbsp thyme
1 tbsp juniper berries crushed
Some bay leaves crushed
Cover all sides of the duck.

I was never a fan until a few years back I had smoked breast as an appetizer and that was amazing. I tried a few recipes and found this one on Youtube, it was a winner. I've slightly tweaked it since AND I found that cherry wood gives a nice sweet smoke taste that works perfect with it.

Yoeri, you didn't say - wild or store bought? Generally, wild birds have significantly less fat then do store bought. I am first and foremost a waterfowl hunter and have a good supply of wild birds waiting for attention in the freezer.

This was store bought, these come on a duo pack and are just the right size, have a nice layer of fat and usually are trimmed well.

I have had wild duck as well but the taste was VERY gamey and indeed less fat and a much smaller breast.
