Sounds overcooked. Wild goose is red meat and should be treated as such, never to be cooked beyond 150F, ideally 145...
I usually pound 'em out to get them more tender, lightly season with a rub like my favorite Dinosaur BBQ rub, then brown in a cast iron pan on the stove and into the oven for 4-6 minutes. We do a similar cooking style (without the pounding) for venison backstrap. The legs and wings go into the slow cooker for a MINIMUM of 8 hours of braising. Comes out just like pulled pork. Bird hearts are a treat not to be missed. I hate thinking about how many we threw away before I decided to try them. Sliced into about 1/4" thick rounds, fry in a hot cast iron pan with some BBQ rub, they're so good. I did one from a turkey a few months ago, so good. -Curt On Friday, June 7, 2024 at 10:41:21 AM EDT, Floyd Thursby via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: My former FIL would go hunt those things on the Eastern Shore every winter and bring a bunch of them home to cook later. The MIL marinated them in red wine and herbs for a day or two then baked them in the oven. They were always dry and tough and chewy and didn't have a good flavor to my tastes. He gave us some at different times and I kinda learned to cook them, marinated the same way but then put them in the oven low and slow and they sorta tenderized to where they were tolerable, but the taste was still nothing particularly likeable. I tried some on the smoke once for about 6-8hr and it was like a shoe sole. --FT On 6/7/24 10:13 AM, Curt Raymond via Mercedes wrote: > If my hunting buddies can't figure out how to make Canada goose breast edible > (hint, don't overcook it) then it seems unlikely... > > -Curt > > > > > On Friday, June 7, 2024 at 09:14:38 AM EDT, Andrew Strasfogel via > Mercedes<mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > > > > > > Within 2 days someone will publish a recipe book for these critters. > > On Fri, Jun 7, 2024 at 1:44 AM Allan Streib via Mercedes < > mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > >> Good news, I guess. >> >> >> https://www.inquirer.com/news/new-jersey/joro-spiders-new-jersey-pennsylvania-philadelphia.html >> _______________________________________ >> http://www.okiebenz.com >> >> To search list archiveshttp://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ >> >> To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: >> http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com >> > _______________________________________ > http://www.okiebenz.com > > To search list archiveshttp://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ > > To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: > http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com > > > _______________________________________ > http://www.okiebenz.com > > To search list archiveshttp://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ > > To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: > http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com > -- --FT _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
