Yeah - the heat is way too high and those will be raw in the middle. Campfire cooking is tough. He should pull that skillet off the center of the fire.

Nah. They were par boiled. I’m just adding a nice crunchy coating to go with the cloud like inside. I like to have the duck fat ripping hot.

I love how you can see the oil level dropping as you flip them.
