About this Pellet Smoker Recipe…

Hand grind duck breast

Step 1 - Place DUCKCHAR Moulard Duck Breast in freezer for five minutes. Remove duck breast and then grind with a sharp knife. Cut into thin slices short ways and then cut again long ways. Finally, chop until you have a nice, coarse ground duck mixture. Don't overdue it, the ground meat is better with some texture.  

Step 2 - Form into two duck burger patties and season with salt and pepper.

Step 3 - Grill duck burgers until internal temperature reaches 135 degrees. Add cheese when there is around 5 minutes left of cook time.

Step 4 - Stack the duck burgers. Start with lettuce on the bottom, then red onion, the burger patty, tomato (seasoned with some salt) and pickles. Spread mustard on the top bun. Serve immediately.
