Skip watered-down versions in Seminyak hotels. Real bebek betutu takes 6+ hours wrapped in banana leaves with traditional spice paste. Warung Made in Gianyar town does it correctly - duck falls off bone, sambal matah that actually burns your mouth. 85,000 IDR half duck with rice.

Order 2 hours ahead or sold out. Tourist places serve reheated garbage sitting around all day. This is traditional slow-cooking technique done properly - smoky, fragrant, worth the wait and drive.

Reminds me of Korean galbi-jjim patience and technique but Indonesian spicing. The time investment makes all the difference in tenderness.
