Stove-Top Sous Vide Duck Recipe

I've only had duck a couple of times in my life, and actually enjoyed it.
This is another recipe brought to you by the Perfect Prime Rib guy, Chef John.

Looks and sounds delicious.. mmmm..

I've been reading a lot about this cooking method lately. Seems like everybody is jumping on the sous vide wagon. There's even a method out there for using a cooler as a cooker. His duck does look good!

I was looking at sous vide equipment at Christmastime. The small home version of the circulator sells for $450. I sure can't afford that right now.

Those that I know of that have tried it use a vacuum, like a professional version of Food Saver. I think if I were to try his stove top version, I'd use the Food Saver instead of the freezer bag - less chance of leaking.

I may try this, but not with duck. I like the rendered duck fat when I saute it.
