Goose Breast
 

Either than jerky how do you all cook your geese? Everytime I cook it it ends up tough. Thats Canada geese and usually greaters, I shot my first blue goose today(in the bush, I mean 100sqkm of bush and it was standing next to a clearcut on a logging trail[&:]) and was told they cook nice so my question is for CDN geese.... just breasts. My roasting birds are great.

Low and slow is the trick. Fourteen hours in a slowcooker is good, just add a few veg, a cup of liquid, and cubed breast meat, spices,thicken with a rue and serve with rice or noodles. Guaranteed to come out tender.
Dice the meat and make a soup.
Cut meat real thin, thread on bamboo skewers and BBQ.
Try smoking them also.
Sometimes I grind up the meat and make goose burgers for something different too.
Just a few ideas.

RE: Goose Breast
 

I usually slice the breast into thin slices. Brown the meat in a frying pan with 1/2 lb of bacon. Add sliced red, green peppers and sometimes mushrooms. Season with ground rosemary, salt pepper (what ever you fancy) and serve with rice or noodles. I also like this meat with wild rice. Slicing the meat into thin slices eliminate any surprises (steel shot) ouch !!!

RE: Goose Breast
 

Thanx for all the recipe's! I would like to know a simple brine..... even just the basics. I love to smoke things, jerky, cold/hot fish, and just abotu anything that can be smoked.

RE: Goose Breast
 

Lay the bird breast down in a disposable aluminum panwith 1/2 lb. of bacon across the bird and throw it in the oven at 350 until the bacon is crispy. This keep the bird from drying out and it's outstanding.
