1 - grease duck inside and out with bacon drippings and season with salt and pepper. slice the garlic then stab the breast and thigs a few times inserting garlic pieces. stuff the duck cavity with quartered apple and onion .
2 - In 6 qt dutch oven add onion, garlic, bell pepper, bay leaf, hot sauce, worchestershire, celery and water. add more water during cooking so vegetables don't burn. Place duck on rack in dutch oven, cover and bake 1 hour at 350F till duck is tender.
3 - make gravy from pan drippings and cornstarch or roux. add mushrooms, return duck to pot and simmer another 15 min.
4 - serve with steamed rice with gravy

Bayou,

Yep a pot with a lid will work as long as the duck fits in it.
