The Duck Commander Family Part 20

2. Bake hot dog buns for 2 hours at 225 degrees.

3. Dice green onions, bell pepper, and celery. Saute your vegetables in half of the b.u.t.ter on medium-low heat.

4. After your hot dog buns are done, take a very large roast pot and dump your buns, cornbread, and saltine crackers into the pot. With your hands, crumble the bread mixture into a fine consistency.

5. When your ducks are done boiling, remove them from the pot and pour a third of the broth into crumbled bread mix.

6. Stir until it reaches a paste consistency. Add vegetables.

7. Add broth until you get a thick but pourable consistency.

8. Add eggs and evaporated milk to your dressing mix and stir.

9. Add sage.

10. Place ducks lightly on top of dressing. Sprinkle Phil Robertson's Seasoning on top of ducks. Lightly coat ducks with rest of b.u.t.ter.

11. Bake duck and dressing at 375 degrees for 2530 minutes.

12. Enjoy!

Acknowledgments We feel blessed beyond measure to have been able to put our life into a book. Really, how many people get to do that? It doesn't just happen, though. Our sincerest thanks to John Howard, not only a great father and father-in-law, but also an excellent book agent who knew we could do it and helped us work through this process with lightning speed. We want to thank our editor and friend, Philis Boultinghouse, who sweetly encouraged us along the way. Also Amanda Demastus, who kindly kept us on schedule, not always an easy task. Thanks to Mark Schlabauch, who helped with the writing process. A special thanks to our a.s.sistant, Angila Summitt, who, along with the other things she does for us daily, helped us gather and choose the pictures to include in the book. Narrowing your entire life to just forty pictures is tough! Thank you to A&E for believing in us and allowing us to show our crazy family to the world. Thanks to our children for being patient while we added one more thing to our already busy lives. Thanks to our big family: our brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and cousins with whom we are blessed to be able to work hard and play hard. And last but certainly not least, thanks to our parents who gave us this story with a life well lived and who continue to be an integral part of our story and our lives. We couldn't do it without you.
