Cooking Instructions
Score the duck breasts with a criss-cross pattern or parallel cuts through the skin, being careful not to cut all the way to the flesh. Season well, then set aside to bring the meat to room temperature.
Put the breasts skin-side down in a cold frying pan and slowly heat the pan. This will melt the fat and help the skin to crisp up without burning.
Fry the breasts, letting the fat melt out and the skin crisp up. Keep frying until the skin is crisp and brown and you’ve melted out as much of the visible white fat as possible. This can take up to 10-15 mins.
Pour the excess fat into a ceramic or glass dish (reserve it for roasting potatoes).
At this stage, you have a couple of options for cooking the meat: turn the breasts, add the butter and swirl the pan, then cook for 5 mins until the meat is browned all over (the meat should feel soft but spring back slightly when pressed); alternatively, heat the oven to 180C/160 fan/gas 4 and cook for 5-6 mins for a rosy pink flesh or 10-12 mins if you’d like it well cooked. If you have a meat thermometer, it should read 54C for rare, 61C for medium and 65C for medium/well done.
Rest the duck breast for 10 mins before slicing to serve.
Storage Instructions
Shelf Life: 5 Days from date of delivery
While we’d be surprised if you could resist the temptation to enjoy immediately, please keep refridgerated unless you intend to eat it right away! Otherwise all our quality meat is suitable for freezing to preserve its taste and texture, meaning you can cook and serve it when you fancy. Once it’s been frozen, please thaw your meat slowly and thoroughly, ideally in the fridge overnight. We vacuum-pack our meat to naturally extend its freshness and make it suitable for home-freezing.

Absolutely fantastic, friendly folk with good wholesalers tasty products, need to try the jerk chicken sausages.
Brilliant value for money, the goat curry is delicious and excellent customer service. I will be ordering again very soon!
Have just tried The Black Farmer pork, tomato and basil sausages and they were absolutetly delicious. Moist, meaty and full of flavour. Probably the best sausages we have had in a while and would definitely recommend.
We ordered a meat box whilst we were camping and had an issue with the delivery company. Chris from the Black Farmer was on the case before I even knew about it. I have never had such a positive customer experience when faced with an issue. Thanks to Chris our meat box arrived in time for our BBQ and was the most delicious hot dogs my family have ever tasted. We will certainly be ordering again and would highly recommend to others. Brilliant quality food and a company you can trust!
Received the Easter Box as a competition prize. Had no idea what to expect inside but what a lovely surprise it was. A full Easter Sunday lunch with everything provided and a recipe card as well. The box arrived, complete with ice packs, in excellent condition. The contents were fantastic. The lamb was amazing and I am not its greatest fan. The pie we made was delicious and yes I went straight to the supermarket and bought some Black Farmer sausages and bacon. Will def be ordering more from you in the future - a well deserved 5 stars!!
Initially I’d been reluctant to order as I didn’t want lots of fresh meat arriving with only me here to eat it! Customer Services assured me I could freeze the items upon delivery, which I did - with the exception of one sirloin steak which is now in my tummy and was absolutely delicious! 😁.Delightful service, prompt delivery and delicious food 😋😁🌟
