Season with salt and pepper and roast in 325 degree F oven for 2 hours Pour off any grease. When ducks are golden brown, remove from the oven and cool to room temperature. Halve the ducks along the backbone and debone. Discard the stuffing and put the bones in 4 cups of water with an onion, some carrot and salt and pepper. Simmer for about 2 hours. Reserve duck stock. Black bean sauce: Blanch the beans in water until soft, then coursely chop. Skin and puree the apple. Sweat the shallots in the port until they are translucent.
