Reply to comment by Bewaretheicespiders in TIL Duck is considered a red meat by culinary standards. by BertyBert1

Possibly, but you'll have a well-done duck if you go to that temp. All the ducks that I eat are wild and don't have the same salmonella concerns that domestic poultry has so I'm totally comfortable eating them rare.

Pretty much every bird has salmonella. It's part of their normal flora. It's the butchering process that contaminates the meat. Good thing about wild duck is usually its not flying through a dessembly line of employees who really don't give a fuck.

Exactly, as long as you have good quality fresh produce you shouldn’t have to worry about keeping to such standards.
