Preparation:

Reduce the balsamic vinegar to 20 percent to syrup consistancy. Set aside. Preheat the broiler or grill. Cut the duck, pork butt and Pancetta into 1/4-inch cubes. Run the meat through a grinder. The mixture should be quite rough. In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground meat with the cinnamon, cumin and salt. Mix very well. Divide the mixture into 8 equal oval patties, about 1/2-inch thick. Wrap each patty in caul fat. Place the patties under the broiler or on the grill and cook through, about 4 to 5 minutes per side. Set aside. In a large 12- to 14-inch sauté pan, heat the olive oil until just smoking. Add the garlic and sauté until very light brown, about 2 minutes. Toss in the kale and sauté, stirring quickly, about 2 to 3 minutes, until just wilted but not too soft. Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper. Divide the mixture equally on 4 plates. Place 2 crepinettes on each plate, drizle the balsamic syrup over the greens, and serve.
