Roast Goose

The New Mexico hostess who shares her recipe for roasting goose likes to use a stuffing containing fruits. She and her husband raise geese and select young birds for their company dinners. Weights of geese vary greatly, from about 4 to 14 lbs. ready-to-cook weight. Young goose has tender meat and cooks more quickly than a mature goose. Whatever kind you choose for your company dinner, allow from 1 to ½ lbs. ready-to-cook weight per person.
