6ANut Report post Posted October 20, 2014 Congrats on your first goose. Pluck the breast clean, make sure to leave the skin on. Cut out each breast piece and brine the brest meat for a day or so. Cook breast, fat side down on medium heat ,cover as needed and keep spooning the goose fat over the breast. Cook Med Rare and enjoy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

6ANut Report post Posted October 20, 2014 Duck and Goose fat are the best, so yes it will, but not a huge deal. Try to wrap it in bacon and make sure you brine it for a little longer. For next time, keep that skin on for both ducks and geese, then cut em out. I have made goose apps before where I thinly slice the breast, give it a little flour batter and fried them up but still not as good as cooking them in the goose/duck fat. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
s.teel12358 Report post Posted October 20, 2014 Thank you very much for the advise!! I will be sure to keep the skin on there next time! I hear goose aren't the best tasting... Excited to try it out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
6ANut Report post Posted October 20, 2014 As my dad's friend says" If cooked wrong, the dog won't even it eat" Brine, don't over cook it and you should be okay, but that skin is the key to making it taste awesome. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

s.teel12358 Report post Posted October 20, 2014 Thanks! I was thinking about making jerky... But it's a pretty nice sized pond. There's two right there and like 4 on the other side of the road. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

.270 Report post Posted October 20, 2014 Years ago I shot lots of honkers every year. They tend to be dry. Pluck the whole thing is best. Go buy a big, fat yella chicken and peel the skin off and mold it over the goose, fat and all. Stuff it like a turkey and stick in the oven until it's done. Taste a lot like roast beef. Never found any other way where they were very good. Meat is real dark and tends tone kinda tough. Lark. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
