One without Bot FliesWhat special climate does it take to raise geese?No and probably wouldn't. I don't trust commercial food(especially US) and don't live in a good clime to grow goose....Those are the wild ones. Did you ever try farm raised goose? The white ones?Lots.love it. I used to shoot them in golf course ponds during migration at night with a bow and arrow fishing reel rig.Hey. I was poor back then but I ate damn well.
Thank you, Lucy. I was hoping some of our European folks would see this because I know from Dickens that goose is a big holiday thing over there.I've never had it, seen it offered on a restaurant menu or served at anyone's home or for sale at the supermarket.
Just wondering what domestic goose tastes like and why it seems to be shunned, at least in the Northeast?
(I had wild goose, once, smoked, at a Christmas buffet. That's not what I'm talking about, though.)
We always have Weihnachtsgans this is roasted goose that is stuffed with stuffing of onions, chestnuts, parsley, breaded rolls and apples at Christmas this is a very old tradition in Germanic nations, the goose, it takes some time to cook the goose though.
Christmas Eve is as important this is when we have Gebackener Karpfen this is fried/baked carp, we have fishes because in Roman Catholic nations Christmas Eve is considered a fasting day that you cannot eat meat, but you can eat fishes.
Sorry OL the OP is about goose but I expand it some. When buying the goose you must buy the youngest goose you can find and also the most expensive one you see, this is very very important because if you buy a cheaper and older goose it is inferior, it will be tougher to chew and will not taste as nice. A fine young Roast goose tastes like an excellent and refined beef, it's almost like Filet Mignon in its taste.
I can tell you how to cook a goose if you want, let me know. We are obsessed with roasted goose, we have eaten it for Centuries.
I'm trying to imagine a fowl tasting or having a texture like filet mignon. Sounds delicious.
I don't think the British do when we lived in London I never heard anyone say that they were having roasted goose, they like roast chicken, roast turkey, roast beef, roast pork but I never heard of them having roasted goose.
I have never even had smoked goose like you mention in your OP, that seems weird smoking a goose for one thing the smoking process will affect the taste and change the taste in the same way that roasted salmon tastes different than smoked salmon.
Roasted goose a fine young roasted goose tastes divine.
I heard that roast goose was like a popular traditional meal for the Brits!
I went to an incredibly fine dining French inspired Christmas Eve dinner at a fancy restaurant once and they served what they called a "bread pudding" that was almost exactly my grandmother's stuffing. I could have hugged the chef.Made with giblets.....We always did when there was a big crowd--ham or venison--and I miss that because I don't like turkey. Thanksgiving is all about the stuffing and the green bean casserole.It's getting to be Toikey tyme!
I'm wondering if I should get a ham, too.
I don't get angry when an animal bites me because I know it doesn't know any better or it's just instinct. I'm an animal lover, so I've been bit by a lot of animals. Chipmunks, one of the most vicious of the forest dwelling creatures.
It does not take a special climate. Canadian Geese never leave Ohio during the winter and it gets pretty cold here. It is more of a food thing, we have enough corn left over from harvest on the ground to feed them, so they stay. You can about bet any goose shot after Nov. 11 around here will have a stomache full of corn when you prepare them. Very few people farm them due to their high content of dark meat. That is why so few out side of hunting have ate them. Those who do farm them usually have orchards and actually farm them for their poop. Apple, peach and pair trees grow realy well on goose droppings.What special climate does it take to raise geese?No and probably wouldn't.

"I don't get angry when an animal bites me"
What if a lion bit you, that should make you fucking angry
I remember a friend had a goose when I was a kidYes, It's tasty. Kinda like all greasy dark meat.
I hate geese. My friend's wife's BFF has a flock of them, they're a PITA anytime we visit.
It would attack me any time I visited. Hated the thing
I'd like to go over with a sawed-off and kill the 1st one that comes up to nip me.
They are just defending their territories or babies.
Chicken is my favorite poultry. It is versatile and mild tasting and that is how I like it. After observing the geese out in my yard, I'm not interested at all in eating one of them.

Another southerner is able to find it at her store.goose is pricey....much more than duck
Is a pattern emerging here?
I've never had it, seen it offered on a restaurant menu or served at anyone's home or for sale at the supermarket.

I don't know. After seeing them crapping all over the place, I don't think they are very appetizing. They seem like pretty dirty birds.

I could never eat duck or rabbit, this is an emotional situation because I adore fluffy ducks and bunny rabbits, emotionally I could not eat them they are two of Gods Most Adorable Creatures on this earth for us to adore not eat.
