For the Super Bowl, I tried smoking a duck for the second time using the recipe at http://www.theblackpeppercorn.com/2012/11/smoked-duck-with-a-honey-balsamic-glaze/

Turned out much better than the first time because I followed your tips, used a higher temperature (~275-300F) and smoked for a longer duration (slightly longer than 4 hours).

Applied lots of salt, pepper, freshly chopped rosemary. Skin cross-hatched:




My dog trying to lay the guilt trip on me:




I accidentally let the internal temp get to ~180F (got distracted). I figure 170F will be a good temperature for next time. It did taste better than the previous try. Wife enjoyed it so that's what matters to me :D. Thanks for the tips/help!
 
Thanks, guys. Don't get to spend a lot of time on the forums so it's more trial/error.

But I'm started to get addicted to duck!
 
Your smoked duck looks delicious Neal. Was the skin crispy? Thats how I like it.
