  Turn down to low medium heat. Place the duck breast-side down in the pot, filling the cavity with the liquid. If the duck isn't completely covered, add water until it is. Take a metal bowl with a lid filled with water and place it on any part of the duck that is peeking through the liquid.

  Simmer the duck for 30 minutes. Remove the duck from the liquid and set aside. Strain the liquid and discard the solids. Put through a grease separator. Place the duck back into the pot, breast-side up. Pour about 2 cups of the liquid back in over the duck. Secure the lid and pressure cook for 15 minutes.
