You can also pickle them like we did in India...
here in france goose is fairly common on the menu...

Baked, they're a tad greasy. I prefer to split the breast and fry with a heap of onions. They have a nice delicate flavor.

Interesting recipie ideas.

Almost enough to spark a renewed interest in Geese hunting.

Tried it many years ago, didn't work out so well. I mean the hunting part was fine but the cooking; Tried to grill it, it was just bad. Might as well been a rubber chicken. And to top it off it locked me up for aboout three days

I read in a property management trade magazine that the best way to keep geese out of ponds and off your property is to get a pair of swan.

I don't know for a fact that it works, but the article said that swans will run off to geese, and your better off with two swans than two dozen geese. You cant eat them all.

PS: I love wild goose eggs.

Where I live, we've done everything but put a bounty on snow geese. Hardly anyone hunts them because they really do taste like crap. Canadas are a bit better.

Only way I have ever had Goose I'd call decent tasting was to slice the breasts thinly, pound out and marinate and then coat in flour and fry to medium doneness at most. Not bad. Of course, I'm in the south and some folks can deep fry most anything and it'll come out good.

The key to "happily" eating goose is to prepare it in such a manner that you can't taste the goose (i.e. apples/oranges/sauces...........).
