DIRECTIONS
- * Personal note:
- I suggest that you soak your duck breast in very cold light brine for 24-48 hours to get the gamey flavor out of it. Change the brine after each day.
- Brine Recipe:
- 4 cups water.
- 1/4 cup salt.
- 1/4 cup Brown Sugar.
- Heat water to boiling, dissolve salt and sugar into water. Let brine cool completely before submerging duck breasts in chunks. I recommend placing it into the refrigerator to get it cold.
- Patties:
- In a bowl, add the meat, herbs and salt and pepper. Mix all together well done making 8-oz. each patty.
- Grill your Turducken patties to minimum 165 degrees and melt your Irish Porter Cheese on them. The bacon grease adds fat, we want to aim for a 80/20 mix of meat to fat, much like ground beef.
- To build the burger:
- Brioche Bun.
- 2 Bacon Strips.
- Baby Spinach.
- Tomato.
- 2 Oz of Cranberry-Dijon Mustard Sauce.
- Turducken Patty + Cheese.
- Brioche Bun.
- Sauce:
- In a small bowl, mix all ingredients together.
