Organic Duck Carcass, Previously Frozen
For scrumptious broths and stocks, Organic bones. Our organic ducks are free-range locally reared ethically on natural food
Even with the most careful butchery, there's always more than a smidgeon of meat left on a duck carcass and we don't think that should go to waste. Add to this the fantastic flavour that's stored in the bones and connective tissues of our organic birds and you have something that amounts to the best stock cube in the world. Just a little bit of effort will reward you with really fabulous flavour.
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. We believe in using the most sustainable methods possible whilst organically rearing our birds; we aim to use as much of the carcass as possible, to reduce wastage.

Why not mix it up a little and add an organic chicken carcass for extra tastiness?

At The Organic Butchery it's important to us that our business works hand in hand with the environment. So sustainability is high on our list of priorities. And part of that is our determination to minimise wastage. Our grandparents would never have thought of throwing away a carcass and neither do we. A huge amount of work goes into rearing our organic ducks and if we're going to slaughter an animal we want to ensure we make the best use of them.
Please note the photo is for illustrative purposes only, you will receive a whole carcass rather than in pieces. As this is a natural product the exact weight may vary depending on the size of the bird.

The beauty of making your own bone stock is you can control exactly what goes into it. Pre-made liquid stocks and soups are packed with all sorts of things, not all of them always wholly natural. For a totally neutral base for soups and broths, simply cover your duck carcass with water, bring to the boil, then simmer (with the lid on) for a good couple of hours. You can add extra dimensions of flavour as you cook with the stock, in the knowledge that you're not doubling up on salt, for example.
