Step 3
Slice the duck breast into 1/4-inch-thick strips with a very sharp knife.
Step 4
Add the sliced duck to the bowl with the marinade, making sure it is completely submerged. Cover the bowl and marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
Step 5
Remove the meat from the marinade and set on paper towels. Let sit for 15 minutes to allow some of the marinade to drain off.
Step 6
When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 180°F and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes.

Step 8
Arrange the meat strips in a single layer directly on the grill grates. Close the lid and smoke until the meat no longer feel soft but still bends, not snaps, in half. Start checking every 30 minutes after 2 1/2 hours, up to 8 hours.
