I've killed my share of redheads but cannot find a way to cook them to make them taste any better than the poly under my hull. Let us know how you cook em!! Try this for red heads: My favorite duck dish...I don't like duck fixed very many ways.... 6 boneless, skinless duck breast halves (three duck...
