with duck you usually poke holes instead of slicing
a corn cob holder works well for this
another method is to pump them full of air

kat and i (duck is her specialty actually) usually roast the duck slow and low for a long time rendering out much of the fat then finish over hot coals on the grill to make the skin crackly crisp

Never did the poking with any sort of precision... just a bit of stabbing with a knife tip. But I agree... a sort of reverse sear is the bet approach for a winter duck/goose.

What sort of seasonings to you use? I'm mostly partial to tarragon if I have it handy. Just salt & pepper if it's campfire fare.

Time to check in and see what's happnin. Guess everyone is still sleeping.

G'day Bobby, at our age just waking up is a plus.
Group of us bought a horse today, 2.5 year old Clydesdale draft horse called Charlie. To pull that dray we've been rebuilding for a couple of years.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Good day to you Jeff, the horse purchase sounds like a fun deal.

[David G]

Morning All,

Sku - looks like a fun project.

Tulsy - D'ju ever own horses? I never did, but had a couple of girlfriends along the way that did. That's how I (sorta,kinda) learned to ride.

How about cows? My brother used to keep a few, and his daughter does now. I'd help him when I was around, and he was always generous come butchering time. He used to say that anyone who kept cattle KNOWS why we eat them. After getting my feet stepped on, and getting crushed against a stall wall a few times, I knew exactly what he meant.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Owned horses and cows, to old to do that now.

We kept goats for a while. That was plenty for me. A hoot... and a hassle <G>

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Hi Fred, Calf riding and pig riding was always fun.

[switters]

Have a good day y'all

[David G]

Morning All,

Our brief visit from the Snow Gods is completely complete. Temp are up into the 40's, and not a speck of white left out there.

Hope everyone has a great day!

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Hi guys, seems I am still on top of the ground. Any extra beer or Mezcal left over?

[David G]

What do you consider "extra"?

I think he means... beyond what he can hold in two hands, between his knees, and in the 6 desktop cup-holders his table is equipped with <G>

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Extra is just that drink that someone else needs.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

I guess that Stella beer will get a beggar through a dry spell.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

That sir sounds like a plan.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Good to hear you are happy to get that rascal home. The beer thinking is going in your favor.

[Domesticated_Mr. Know It All]

I need a vehicle with better heat.
My old Dodge truck is an icebox.
My next one is gonna have heated seats.

She'll look so much better with the new (slightly oversize) tires. I took it in with the Mazda2's itty bitty snow tires on, and it looks a bit silly right now. No daylight left after I clock out this time of year, so I won't be changing tires until Saturday.

Funny, I was shooting for a utility vehicle look what with the sides skirts off, and the aero package front and rear trimmed, but the color is great and this guy used a super gloss clear coat, so it looks more like a show car now - which is what they specialize in.

I dropped off my white Miata when i picked this one up. The Miata's looking like a dalmation with all the paint chips that have been flying off the past few years, and as we got talking, we agreed the factory white is not a good finish. Soooo - I'm going all out and painting her 'Mazda Soul Red'. We're going with a header and stainless exhaust, reinforced frame rails with a butterfly brace, and a roll bar. New top, too.

If all goes well, I have the other Miata detailed and sell her off. The proceeds will cover the cost of rehabbing the first Miata and the Scion. I've concluded I don't need four cars.

LOVE that color!!

Morning again, Time for coffee and bourbon and bacon.

Morning again, Time for coffee and bourbon and bacon.

Coffee's on board. Bacon sounds good. I spent the morning coordinating delivery by two crews, then watching the crews load sheathing plywood into the driveway, and bundles of new shingles up onto the roof. Weather prolly won't allow them to start the demo until next week.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Morning David, it always rains when you need a roof put on.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Morning again, here I am talkin to myself again.
Coffee is done and someone left a box of donuts on the bar.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Hi Fred, you still around?

[David G]

Morning All,

I had a viewing appt. early, then went to the shop to sand & spray. Haven't even managed coffee yet, but it's brewing now. 5 is off to school, but 3 has a lighter schedule and stayed home today. She' in a 'why' phase.

Hope everyone has a good'n!!

[Bobby of Tulsa]

Sure is quiet around here tonight.

[Bobby of Tulsa]

[Bobby of Tulsa]

I think that is a good thing Fred.

[David G]

Amber is missed. She's probably married with 2-3 kids and living in Galveston now.

We're just lucky Tulsy is So Danged Cute.
