Hair Dryer Peking Duck

CPARKTX

I was planning to do Peking Duck for Christmas and in a bit of synchronicity saw an article on NPR about "cooking" a duck with a hair dryer. Of course it doesn't actually cook the duck, but about 10 minutes on high really dried it off and this had the crispest skin I've gotten yet.

I cooked the duck raised direct at 375 dome.

Served with scallion crepes, dipping sauce, green onions, fried rice and champaign.

Came out great, but sadly not much for leftovers

Touché @The Cen-Tex Smoker ...clearly that is Aimee's hair dryer. The crepes are surprisingly easy to make, I use the recipe from BBQ Bible and they are great.

Very nice and very interesting. Just visited NPR.ORG and read more about it, thanks for sharing.

Now you got me wondering ... what if I use my Looftlighter
