It's like a duck, fatty but has a gamey taste like pheasant. Serve with something citrus to cut through the fattiness.

It's defiantly a greasy meet. Use the fat to roast your spuds

prick all over and roast upside down on a wire tray over the roasting tin.
upside down keeps the breast moist.
nice bread sauce and apple or gooseberry sauce
potatoes in the dripping underneath while cooking are to die for
french beans and caramelised carrots
lemon and lime sorbet for pud

do that and you've scored

Goose is like duck only with a more game like taste. It is very greasy and like duck you need to be able to drain the fat out of it (on the plus side, the fat does make great roasties) by slashing the skin in places and standing it off of the tray. Altermatively you could make a marinade containing cider or white wine vinegar which would cut into the fat and break it up. The biggest issues with goose is the amount of meat for the size of bird. You need a large bird to get any reasonable amount of meat.

Duck or Phesent make better alternatives in my opinion.

when and if we get to move you're all welcome to a 'cum dine with me'
but you're not going to get to look through my knicker drawer and pick
holes in them (they've got enough already)
