Hunting was a way of life when I was growing up, we hunted anything that didn't eat us first and some things that would eat us if given the chance. Growing up in the country taught us to live off the land, to grow our vegetables and herbs, and to hunt for our meat. We raised pigs and chickens, for eggs and to eat. Duck has always been a favorite of mine, but anyone can roast a duck, how many fry them?
