Simple Rotisserie Duck Recipe

While many North Americans stick to the same old Christmas dinner menu, it's easy to feel like the holiday spirit is fading when faced with another dry turkey. But what if you could switch things up and bring some new flavors to your table? Grilling a rotisserie duck on an infrared burner is not only delicious but also efficient, giving you more time to enjoy the company of loved ones.

With over 40 million turkeys consumed each Thanksgiving and 22 million on Christmas, it's no wonder that people are looking for something different. A rotisserie duck, cooked on a PGS Grill with an infrared rotisserie burner, offers a juicy, flavorful alternative that’s both trendy and satisfying. It’s also a great way to keep the kitchen cool during the holidays.

Did you know that duck was once a traditional choice for Christmas in the UK and Europe? While modern times have shifted toward turkey, the classic flavor of duck still holds its place in many homes. With the right equipment, like an infrared rotisserie burner, you can recreate that old-world charm with ease and consistency.

Why Choose Rotisserie Duck for Your Christmas Dinner?

Grilling a duck on a rotisserie is not only faster than roasting a turkey—it’s also easier. A typical 11-pound turkey takes around 3 hours in the oven, while a similar-sized duck can be ready in just 60-90 minutes. Plus, the crispy skin and moist meat make it a real crowd-pleaser. You’ll spend less time tending to the bird and more time enjoying your guests.

Another benefit of choosing duck is portion control. Turkeys often come in large sizes, leading to wasted leftovers. A duck, on the other hand, usually weighs between 8–11 pounds, which is perfect for a family of 4–6. And if you're hosting a bigger gathering, you can easily cook a second one without any hassle.

Duck also has a richer, juicier flavor compared to turkey. Its thicker skin becomes perfectly crispy, and it’s less likely to dry out. Whether you’re a seasoned grill master or a first-time chef, rotisserie duck is a fantastic option for a festive meal that will impress everyone at the table.

How to Cook a Delicious Rotisserie Duck

Cooking a rotisserie duck is simple, especially with the right tools. The infrared rotisserie burner on a PGS Grill ensures even cooking and a mouthwatering result. Here’s how to do it:

• Preheat your infrared rotisserie burner and place a drip pan underneath.
• Wash and thoroughly dry the duck inside and out.
• Use a skewer to poke small holes in the skin to help the seasoning penetrate.
• Season the duck with salt, pepper, and a bit of garlic powder.
• Tie the legs together and brush on your favorite marmalade.
• Secure the duck onto the rotisserie spit and place it on the burner.
• Set the temperature to medium and cook for about 60–90 minutes.
• Check the internal temperature near the end of cooking. It should reach at least 160°F at the thickest part.
• Brush with a second layer of marmalade and let it finish cooking.

For extra flavor, sprinkle fresh herbs like rosemary, thyme, and ginger over the duck before serving.

How to Make Simple Orange Marmalade

A sweet and tangy orange marmalade makes a perfect glaze for your rotisserie duck. It's quick to make and adds a delightful twist to the dish.

Here’s a simple recipe to get you started:

• 1/2 cup orange marmalade
• 1/2 cup of 100% orange juice
• 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 4 minced garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons chopped rosemary

Combine all ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let it cool slightly before using. Reserve some for serving and use the rest to coat the duck as it cooks.

You can also experiment with other marmalades like apricot, grapefruit, or lemon for a unique twist. The key is to find a flavor that complements the rich taste of the duck.
