Thanksgiving is right around the corner and as many of you begin the three day fest in order to make room for one giant bird, I am going to offer a suggestion that might be just as tasty but not quiet as dry. I am not a huge fan of turkey’s white meat and if one is not careful this bird is probably the easiest to overcook. This year, I am going to stuff two turkey legs and prepare a 5-6lb organic whole duck with a molasses based glaze for extra crispiness. If you are looking for an organic duck, you can always pick one up at your local Whole Foods. Specifically, a Culver Duck, which is USDA, Grade “A” Five Generation, All Natural Whole Duckling. Personally, I love duck, but the fattiness of this bird might not be for everyone, so enjoy the holidays, prepare what you do best, but just make sure to remember to concentrate on the organic or the all natural and if possible support your local growers.

Photos and the recipe will be posted next Monday as my holiday special. Gobble! Gobble!
