Tasty duck and stuffing. I left out a LOT of the butter - is that a typo in the recipe? Would have preferred a thicker sauce.

I'm commenting on the Balsamic Cherry Sauce as I cooked my duck another way. I was looking for a good cherry sauce to put on my duck and this was it. Followed directions for the sauce, (just added more cherries) This sauce was perfect. Actually even better today with leftover duck. This sauce could be made a day ahead and gently reheated. Will make again.

WOW! that was fantastic! What a perfect birthday meal for my husband! He was quite the happy man The cherry glaze was awesome! I was very pleasantly surprised. the stuffing was awesome too! I had a lot left over though, because the ONLY duck I could find was 3.8 lbs. It was enough though! We'll have the stuffing for lunch tomorrow! YUM! I used 6 TBL of margerine and it turned out just fine. 1 cup is WAY too much. Thanks for a fantastic birthday recipe! I think this was my husbands best yet

This is also a review of the Balsamic Cherry Sauce. I really like the sauce, but didn't use it as I felt it would over-power the duck I roasted. But it is making quite a dessert! I upped the honey by an additional 2 Tbs and served it with the cherries over pound cake and vanilla ice cream. Next time I will reduce the vinegar by 1/3 to 1/2 for a slightly less tart sauce, as I used a can of sour cherries.

I coule only give this four stars due to the fact that I didn't make the entire recipe. I did not stuff the bird, since my family doesn't like rice. So, I just seasoned the duck unstuffed and then roasted it in the oven. I did make the Balsamic Cherry Sauce. I thought it was delicious. I would make it again. However, my husband is not a big fan of duck, but I thought I would try it and see what he thought. To my surprise, he said, 'It was edible'!! For him to make that comment is like you and I saying it was great!! You have to understand my husband is meat (red) and potatoes for every meal, if I would let him. I also made a cabbage dish and had some leftover mashed potatoes to go with the duck. He didn't like the cabbage dish either. And, of course, he polished off the potatoes. He did say that the cherry sauce made the dish. He liked it! Wow!!!
