Well I do several things with goose breasts , legs and thighs

The breasts I

Grind and mix 4 parts ,with 1 part ground pork .
Then use the mix to make Patties , meat balls or anything you would use grond beef for .

Cut in 1" cubes , brown and use as the meat in chille or any thing else

Cut acrost the grain and turn into Jerky , I make a mean Spicy Goose Jerky



Thighs

I use as I would chicken ot Turkey thighs

Bread and pan fry or broil .


Legs

I wait till I have enough
Then I slow cook them all day in the crock pot , so the meat falls off the bone .
With onions , chilies Ect

I then sort out the meat from the bones .
I then use it as you would cooked chicken or turkey

Hope this helps , I have 4 racks of Jerky drying right now

The best way to do it is let them soak in some salt water for a day or so. You cut the breasts up into little chunks- put them in a skillet with butter and onions and a little season salt let them simmer for an hour or so- or until they get real tender. then eat them suckers fast cause once anyone tastes them they won't last long. Use the gravy over some biscuts and thats a meal fit for a king.

Grind or finely dice breast up, brown and added and simmer with chili on low heat for several hours.
I'm no expert on making jerky. But I've made some okay jerky out of sliced breasts. I think the suggestion to first soak for 1 day in salt water, drain and rise with fresh water before marinating in your jerky marinade is right. I've had jerky from a friend that way, which is outstanding.

Also, with fresh goose breasts:
- Fry 1 pound of bacon and save bacon to side.
- In bacon grease lightly fry up slices onions (2) and a cubed bell pepper with a little salt and pepper. Save these off to side with fried bacon.
- Cover the bottom of the same pan with Olive Oil at 300 degrees put in cubed (3/4") goose breast. Season with All Spice, Lawry's seasoning, salt and pepper. Brown them on both sides, but don't over cook them.
- Put the bacon, onions, peppers back in and heat up for another min. or 2.
- Server hot next to steam rice or on buttered dinner rolls with a little more salt, to taste.

Don't let those geese sit too long in the freezer. They're better tasting, if you eat them soon rather than later.

Enjoy!

Alot of times after getting home I will just rinse the breasts, cut in bite size pieces, and fry em in butter. Maybe with a few green peppers slices if I am getting fancy. Takes about 10-15 minutes.

For something different smoked duck or goose breast is also very tasty. Just soak in salt(Morton Tender Quick) over night, rub on brown sugar, and then put in the smoker. Just under 6 hours the feast begins.

1. cut into cubes
2. marinate in whatever floats your boat
3. wrap in bacon/ secure with toothpicks
4. slow cook over charcoal, add some wood chips if you like

Good thing to do if you've already got the grill going for burgers/steaks/etc.
