I bought a frozen duck....

[ddog27]

Ok I was at Walmart and they have a frozen duckling in the frozen food aisle. It was pretty cheap so I picked it up. I am thinking about smoking beer can chicken style. Has anyone tried that before? What kind of wood is good with duck? Any other tips?

I'd use a drip pan....ducks got looots of fat. Could get a grease fire.

I have cooked a duck on my beer can rack. Although I cooked it a bit long, duck is so fat it is forgiving. Mostly made the skin too dark. I put concentrated orange,lemon juice and come clove in the can and rubbed it with fresh orange zest in olive oil.

Hope this helps.

Apple wood is awesome for slow smoking a duck!

Although, after deep frying the last few we've had
It's hard to reccomend any other way.

I've done them the way in Kevin's link and they come out good.
