Gloves and cutting board
Jacob,
I notice you are wearing gloves and using a different cutting board in this video compared to when you were butchering the whole chicken. Can you explain why?
@ Erik, It's simple really.
@ Erik,
It's simple really. It was a different day so I was using a different cutting board. When butchering large quantities of meat or fish I like to wear gloves because after a while my hands start to feel "meaty." I had about 18 ducks to butcher that day so I was wearing gloves.
Buchering and washing duck
hi, iam new to "duck" i have a quick question for you guys. iam sure you know.jAfter watching your video on butchering duck it looks easy. and i think i can do it . however, i have another question do you wash the duck the same way you would wash a chicken???you know the process where you rinse and rinse until the water comes clear. should you do the same process with a duck as well.
I don't rinse my duck, but I
I don't rinse my duck, but I also don't rinse my chicken. The rinsing of chicken has stemmed from people being overly paranoid with the chicken carrying bacteria, but it really isn't necessary, especially if you buy a fresh, good quality chicken to begin with.
