Answer 1

STUFFED WILD GOOSE

Giblets from goose
4 cups bread crumbs
2 med. onions
2 apples, diced
1/4 tsp. sage
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 med. wild goose
2 tbsp. butter

Cook giblets until tender; reserve liquid.

Chop giblets and add to bread crumbs, onions, apples, and seasonings.

Add liquid from giblets to moisten stuffing.

Place goose in roasting pan and dot with butter.

Bake approximately 20 minutes per pound of goose at 350 degrees.

Baste often. 8-12 servings

Answer 2

I bought this rack that keeps the duck or I guess goose, elevated above the pan. It will trash your oven. But hey, gotta clean it sometime :)

I'd do it the same way I do duck. Salt and pepper the outside and the inside of the goose. Chop up some chunks of apple and orange, garlic and ginger and stuff that inside the goose. You don't eat this stuffing, its just for flavor.

Will take a couple hours to cook and in the last half hour of cooking I make up a simple hoison, soy and chili paste mixture and brush that on the goose a few times before I pull it out.

It will be quite excellent

Answer 3

Cook it for 35 or 40 minutes in a pressure cooker.
Or
Overnight in a slow cooker.
Once the meat is tender, you can make it crispy by placing it in a hot oven for a while

Answer 4

The only time I had a "wild" goose it was REALLY gamey tasting. If you like or don't mind that kind of flavor, I might try some of these pheasant recipes.
