Properly cooked, it is great eating and I will stuff myself. Cooked too done, may as well feed it to the dogs. We eat a lot of wild fowl. We like to take whole pintails or mallards, pluck and brine them, season and roast whole on the smoker. The jerky from the geese, is gone as quickly as I can make it. I can tell you a long time ago, I was very reluctant to make jerky out of goose. Just didn't sound right to me. But after I did the first time, I gladly take birds when the guys I hunt with don't want any.
