I may try duck next year ........... need to have a practice run with it first!

I've always heard that goose is quite greasy and that there's not really that much meat on the bones. Don't know anyone who's ever cooked it; I'd be interested in reading comments. I did do a pheasant years ago for Thanksgiving...never again !!!t

I will be using goose fat again this year for my roast potatoes and parsnips ...... thanks to Emma's tip last year.

They tasted divine!!

Where can you get goose fat if you haven't cooked one? Don't remember ever seeing it in the market...I think goose is more popular there than in the States...very Dickensian!

Here you can buy it in the supermartket DM have a look at an online supermarket by you a big one maybe and in the search engine put in goose fat and see what pops up - you know Mags I was thinking that too it only seems like yesterday Emma was passing on the information on goose fat - doesn't it but its obviously been a year. Wow where has it gone.

Kazz, just did a search and found one site here that has goose fat: 7 oz. for $8.11, plus S & H. Seems a bit pricy. Did find a few UK sites that have it, though. Think I'll continue to baste my roast potatoes with the chicken fat.......

They sell it in tins in the supermarket here, it's quite dear, I paid £2.99 for a tin, but it's well worth it for a special occasion.......

Mine came in a glass jar, rather like a small jam jar and was quite expensive but can't remember what I paid for it now. I bought it in Asda - my local supermarket
