turn the breasts in the juice.

Put the duck, well spaced, on the steaming rack and cover. Fold the
overhanging foil over to keep the smoke in. Turn the heat to high, leave it
for 5 minutes then turn to low and leave for 5 minutes, finally remove from
the heat and let sit, still covered for 5 minutes more.
