Braised Muscovy Duck image

I raise some of my own meat and this year I tried Muscovies. They are different from other ducks and the meat usually requires liquid to tenderize it. And they're big, so they won't fit in most crockpots. I cook them in a covered roaster in the oven. If you can't find Muscovy, this recipe would work well for any poultry. NOTE: Muscovies are very low in fat; you will barely notice any in the finished dish. The nutritional information will show a high fat content because it only recognizes the Mallard-type ducks found in grocery stores.

Time 12h15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 whole duck, Muscovy
1 1/4 cups beer, dark
2 onions, cut up
2 carrots, cut up
2 apples, cut up
1 cabbage, small head, cut up
1/2 cup dried cherries
10 dried apricots
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon pepper, freshly ground

Steps:

  • Cranberries can be used instead of cherries. Place all ingredients in a crockpot set on low, a covered roaster in a 200* oven, or a large heavy-bottomed pot on a very low burner, for approximately 12 hours, until the meat falls off the bone. To speed things up, start the crockpot on high or the other pots on a medium burner until the liquid begins to simmer, then cook as directed. If your pot doesn't have room for all the ingredients, the cabbage can be cooked separately, preferably in the pot liquor. Goes best with potatoes or noodles, and would probably be wonderful with spaetzle.

This duck dish was a bit time-consuming to make, but it was worth the effort. The duck was fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauce was rich and flavorful. I served it with roasted potatoes and green beans, and it was a delicious meal.
