Grilling is the perfect way to experieince the rich dark meat that a duck has to offer. Ducks are a true Canadian treat and grilling and proper preperation is the magic to breakdown the thick fat layer between the meat and the skin. Stuffed with firm fresh pairs makes a perfect side dish and pair this with a fresh craft larger or a glass of a bold merlot and you’ll have a meal made for a king.
