Ingredients

  • 1 (4 pound) whole duck
  • 10 cups water, or more as needed
  • 1 (9×9 inch) pan prepared cornbread, crumbled
  • 4 prepared biscuits, chopped
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic salt
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 8 large eggs

Directions

Step 1
Place duck in a 12-quart stockpot with enough water to cover by 2 to 3 inches. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until meat is tender, about 1 hour. Remove duck from broth, allow to cool, and pull meat from the bones into bite-sized pieces. Reserve broth.

Step 2
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 3
Mix together cornbread, biscuits, onion, sage, pepper, garlic salt, and salt in a large roasting pan. Beat eggs in a bowl; pour over cornbread mixture. Add duck pieces to the pan; mix thoroughly. Stir in reserved duck broth until dressing is very moist (about the consistency of thick pancake batter).

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until a spoon inserted into the center of dressing can stand up, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
