Saturday i managed to kill one poor little ol'hen and knowing that wouldn't feed 3 of us i pulled out a goose we killed in the early season. First i soaked the breast in just plane water for two days changing it at least twice a day. On the third day i mixed up a brine of kosher salt, sugar, and whole pepper corns. As soon as i came home yesterday i drained and rinsed the breast and sliced them into 1 inch strips and soaked them in zesty italian dressing for about 3 hours. I wrapped each piece with a half of a slice of bacon and seasoned half with a poultry rub a buddy of mine makes and half with Big Al's monkey dust that i cut with a couple tablespoons of brown sugar. This gave the meat a good carmelization and it helped cut the heat a little. Then i placed them on a hot grill just until the bacon started to crisp. I also basted the pieces i rubbed with monkey dust with Big Al's dipping sauce. I don't know if i was just lucky or what but this was by far the best duck or goose i've eaten.
Best duck and goose i ever fixed!
