I save the whole duck. Those little drumsticks and thighs have a fair amount of meat on em. I cut the duck up, just like I do a fryin` chicken. Season, flour, and fry. Then take the pieces out, and make gravy. Put the pieces back in the gravy and simmer over low heat, till tender. A pot of rice or mashed potatoes, and biscuits, and you got something fittin` to eat.

The quickest way to a duck dinner is to butterfly the breasts and pan fry them. There are many more involved ways to prepare and cook them, but a little salt, pepper, and flour goes a long way.

I like to soak them in Zesty italian or red wine vinagerette and a little seasoning with peppers inside and wrap in bacon and throw them on the grill. That is some good stuff to me.

The easiest way to cook em is to put em in the crock pot with a little bit of water, little Dale's and Italian dressing in the morning, and they are ready to eat that afternoon. Really good.

Put'em in a crock pot and get a can of "chicken broth" from the store..season your ducks as you wish and add a onion...put enough broth to cover the ducks...cook till done and remove the ducks from the pot...stir in some corn starch and water mixed to thicken the broth into "gravy"...make you some rice or mashed taters and pour the gravy on'em and duck on the side...oh yea.

wrap alot of bacon around them and grill. take the bacon off and throw the duck away then eat the bacon.
good luck i have yet to cook a duck or goose that tasted good. it is definantly the only bird i fail at maybe you will have better luck.

Too late if you've breasted them, but next time try picking the duck so you have the entire critter. Then... rub some garlic into the breast; put half a can of frozen apple-juice concentrate in the cavity; use an oven-roasting bag and its spice mix (double the water); bake for 1 1/2 hours breast down in the bag. We like 'em with gravy, mashed potatoes and black-eyed peas.

I've cooked a lot of ducks. Along with woodcock my favorite game meat.
The most important thing no matter how you do it is not to cook the bird past medium rare. I like them as rare as you would cook a steak.
Anything past that is going to be tough and taste like liver. The meat should be pink after cooking.
I've eaten a lot of ducks and woodcock cooked quite rare and never had any problem at all.
Of course this really only applies to wild duck. The store bought ducks have much more fat and are almost a different animal entirely.
If you can't bring yourself to eat a bird rare, either braise them for a long time in a liquid or give them all to me.
