8 duck breast filets
2 tablespoons finely minced fresh rosemary leaves
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh thyme
2 large cloves of garlic finely minced
fresh ground black pepper
Soak duck breasts in a brine solution overnight. Remove breasts and rinse, then grind fresh black pepper over both sides of the duck. Add extra pepper if you prefer your duck spicy. Next, rub the minced spices thoroughly over both sides of the breasts and let the duck sit for an hour. Grill to desired doneness, we prefer medium-rare at our house. Slice the duck breasts into thin strips across the grain and serve with a rice or potato side dish. A hearty red wine goes well with the duck.
1 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon teriyaki sauce
1 ½ tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon powdered ginger
½ cup Worcestershire sauce
½ cup molasses
1 ½ tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon garlic
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and let duck breasts marinade for at least 4 to 5 hours. Brush grill with olive oil. Baste breasts with marinade as they cook. Cook breasts until done. Marinade covers 10 to 15 breasts depending on the size.

2 Duck Breasts (any species works well) | 4 Jalapeno Peppers |
1 pound Bacon | Bull's-eye Smokey Hickory BBQ Sauce |
Cut the Jalapenos into thin slices (like you get with nachos)
Cut pound of bacon in half
Cut the duck breasts into chunks
Place a Jalapeno slice on each chunk, wrap with bacon (toothpick it)
Place on grill - just a few minutes on each side
When it's almost done, brush on the BBQ sauce
Enjoy!
(Tip: the fat from the bacon ensures that the duck will not dry out too quickly - remember, duck is best when it's pink and juicy - if it's brown, you've overcooked it)
