Instructions
Start the smoker and set it for 275F using wood of choice (I used hickory).
Place the duck in the smoker and smoke for around 2 1/2 - 3 hours or until the internal temperature of the breast and thigh each reach a minimum of 165-170.
Make the glaze by mixing the honey, balsamic vinegar, salt and cayenne pepper. Brush the glaze on the duck after each hour of smoking.
Remove the duck from the smoker and let it rest 15 minutes before carving.
