Roasting or baking?
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

Did You Try the Google?
Hey Donald, Duck!
http://allrecipes.com//Recipes/meat-and-poultry/game-meats/d...
Tons of recipes, for better and worse. I'm guessing that since duck is relatively dark, and greasy, it may well lend itself to getting a bit spiced
up, Baja-style. Had an excellent duck at El Rey Sol in Ensenada a few years ago. But, as far as I know, they aren't sharing their recipe.
Hope some of our Nomad friends can help you out.
Feliz Navidad!

Is Washington close enough to Canuckland for you ??
Here's my basic duck recipe:
Preheat oven to 375.
Clean duck and remove excess fat
poke little holes with a bbg skewer about every sq inch through the skin and into the breast fat - not into the meat.
Heat 1/2 gallon of water to boiling and slowly pour over the breast into the sink.
Place bird in pan and pour one more cup of boiling water over the breat into the pan.
Pat dry or let stand for 10 minutes and then salt and pepper, etc - inside and out.
Into the oven until the thigh/breast reaches 165.
You can add a glaze during the last 20-30 minutes made with many things.
An easy favorite is 1/2 stick of butter with 1/2 cup of orange marmalade.
The holes in the skin are to allow the fat to drip out of the layer below the skin. Nothing worse than soggy duck skin and soft fat underneath. The
boiling water helps accelerate the fat removal to ensure a crispy skin with even the fattest birds.

particular order.

For an extra crispy skin hang the duck for 8 hours or so in a hot airy area until the duck starts rendering fat. Then cook as prescribed above making
sure you prick the skin. Below is a pic taken at BOLA in March. I cooked them on a Weber charcoal BBQ.

Hey Woody, Merry Christmas to you and Bia. I don't have a recipe for duck, but if you're going to use stuffing, make sure you add popcorn. When the
duck is done cooking, the popcorn will blow it's a** off!
Two dirt roads diverged in Baja and I, I took the one less graveled by......
