Thought of the day

Would it be overly ambitious to tackle cooking something like goose for christmas dinner? The thing is I have never done it, and don't know whether people would like it. But if you're going to try to cook something like that, you really need to have a lot of people to feed for an excuse

If you can get your hands on it Pheasant is good. Duck tends to have a lot of fat in it. Definetly a good idea to have a back up just in case;). Ham...oooor...maybe even chicken?

I have made pheasant before and it was divine - but I don't think I'd be able to find any. We're not big on ham, but hubby loves duck and I have had some that's been absolutely delicious. Because it's fatty the trick is definitely cooking it right. Risky? Yes.

As a likely consumer of said experiment, I vote for whichever option includes the backup entree.

Plus, that option = more leftovers! :)

How many people are coming?

For sure, eight grownups and two munchkins. Possibly another two grownups and one voracious teenager will drop by, but they probably won't be there for the meal.
