They're not a particularly delicious bird IMO, which is frankly why other birds are more popular, such as duck. Goose is also extremely fatty, more so than duck, which makes it stupidly easy to cook badly.
- brownbat 10y agoThe fat is obnoxious. You're more likely to make a mistake though by treating the legs and the breasts equally, they need to cook different amounts. Of course, that's the same way people ruin turkey. They want that whole bird to come out of the oven like in a magazine, even though the different parts of the bird have different volumes, densities, and protein chains. On the other hand, maybe everyone's just making dry turkey as an excuse for gravy...
