Organic Duck Legs, Previously Frozen
Distinctively flavoured and easy to cook
Packed with rich flavour, beautifully tender and substantially meaty, The Organic Butchery duck legs make a really satisfying meal – be it fancy or homely. Hearty duck meat holds its own against the bold flavours of spice or chilli and balances the delicacy of fruit, making it a versatile choice that's at home in all kinds of cuisine.
All of our Perkin ducks are locally reared in Devon’s Blackdown Hills, by working with a poultry specialist who has 40 years of experience running a Soil Association-certified farm, we know that our duck has been reared in a natural, high-welfare system. A natural diet, lots of exercise and the ability to swim, dabble and preen means our ducks are fit and healthy, with strong immune systems.
This product has been previously frozen and therefore may defrost partially or fully on its way to you. Due to this it is not suitable for re-freezing.

High standards of animal husbandry and welfare are critical to us at The Organic Butchery. We believe that animals should live their lives in an environment that offers them the opportunity to follow their natural instincts. For our ducks, that means growing in a free-range, sustainable system with access to water for swimming and grass for grazing. An active lifestyle and natural diet ensure our ducks are healthy, with strong immune systems. And that translates directly into high-welfare meat that tastes delicious.

The versatility of duck leg means it can be cooked in any number of ways. Simply roasted with herbs and garlic and served with a citrussy salad it makes a knock-out midweek supper. Or try slow cooking it in a cassoulet with haricot beans, smoky lardons and some Italian sausage. The most indulgent way to cook duck legs is, of course, by confiting them. A traditional French preparation that not only cooks the meat but also preserves it, confit essentially means very slowing braising the legs in lots of duck fat flavoured with aromatic spices such as juniper, cumin and coriander. Once cooked through, the meat can be stored in a jar, encased in the fat until needed. It's certainly indulgent, but very delicious.
