    Fabulous….. start cold in cast iron fat skin side down to redender fat … raise heat,
    Hit sides… flip to cook 3-4 min. Put in 350 oven …. rest. Slice thin —-> better then prime rib and healthier !!!

    Very fatty with far less meat. Very disappointed as I’ve always considered this a reliable source.

    This duck breast was amazing! The flavor was delicate and delicious. If you have any doubt about trying this, the key is finding a good recipe.

    I just wish I could find it locally!

    Help! I purchased Duck Breast in early 2019 from my local Whole Foods market. I went back the next day it was all gone! I have been looking for more ever since. PLEASE MAKE IT AVAILABLE ONLINE for purchase.

    These were great, but my local store stopped carrying them.. I think they just priced them to high abdc were forced to discount them as the sell by date got closer

    This duck breast is reliably excellent. I echo other reviewers’ frustration in finding a source. I purchased at Whole Foods again at Christmas and thought it was back but they only had it for a couple of weeks.

      Hi EMC! The Duck Breasts have been gaining in popularity! They should be back in stock at most Whole Foods on the East Coast by next week. Check with the meat manager at your store– he may be able to keep one back until you get to the store.

    I FINALLY found the duck breast back in stock at
    Whole Foods in CT but they say they are only carrying for Easter week so I’m stocking up.

    Don’t understand one thing, your directions say to cook to 165 internal? What? You don’t treat duck like chicken, Duck is treated like red meat so it should be cooked just like steak and can be safely so medium rare somewhere around 125-135. 165 will destroy these, need to change that.

      We’ve modified our instructions John. Thank you for the thorough review.

    I began eating duck in Poland. (It wasn’t very expensive there, and I was tired of pork).
    It’s simple to cook (seared on an iron skillet), but you need to pay attention as you’re cooking. Render the fat often, and do not overcook it! If you’re roasting a whole duck, definitely pierce the skin all over (but not too deeply). The fat of the duck serves as a self-basting tool.

    Yes, though it’s a bird, it’s a red meat bird, so you do not cook it to a 165′ temperature (no matter what the USDA says, sorry).
    I was at a wedding just this month and I had ordered duck. But they cooked it like it was chicken, which is what it tasted like. Yikes.

    It’s too bad that duck is undereaten in America, but it is healthy and delicious, and it’s a nice change.

    Best duck I have found

    I’ve picked up a few of these but no where is the type of duck labeled. Can someone provide this? I’m curious so I can start recognizing the differences.

      Our ducks are Pekin Ducks. A Pekin duck is a white-feathered breed of duck originating in China. This breed, preferred in the U.S. market, has a mild and moist flavor profile and is not gamey like other breeds including Muscovy, Moulard and Mallard ducks. If you have any more questions, please send us an email at [email protected].

        Yes, your duck breast is absolutely scrumptious! I buy it at Whole Foods in Germantown, Tennessee. It is only available Thanksgiving and Christmas. Please make it available year-round. Duck breast is my favorite, and yours is the best! It is so hard to find at restaurants anymore. Please let me know how I can acquire your duck breast year-round. Thank you!
