Goose sausage is very good.

Thank you Baconologist. That might be the answer. With the boys I have a hard time with just breasting the bird. (waste not want not) Sausage maybe the answer if they get fat and skin as in the link you gave me. I did print it out.

While I'm retired my wife still works 2-3 days a week consulting in the Silicon Valley, 250 miles round-trip. The days she works are the days I grind and stuff, so today will be pounding out another 22lb batch of my chicken-Italian-dried tomato-black olive sausage. Even tho I've got maybe 30 pounds shrink-wrapped in the freezer, we go thru the stuff like water, and I scored the chicken thighs for $.88lb. I boned out all the skin and thigh meat yesterday to save a couple of hours on my feet. I should be done with everything cleaned and put away in about five hours, just in time for a martini and some Monday Night Football

How'd you know? My first car was a '57 Chevy 2-door Belair hardtop with a 327 Vet engine, 3 Stromberg 2-bbl carbs, Muncie 4-spd tranny, black button-tuck upholstery, 17 yrs old. Missed a shift in a drag race and blew everything. Wish I had that car today, be worth a nice chunk-o-change. RAY

Ray that right hand of yours is an example of repetitive motion injury. Have you had physical therapy work prescribed?[/quote]

32 years in the carpenters union and a small contractor, swingin' a hammer pretty much the entire time. I have arthritis all over, spurs on my spine, joints creak and crack. Was diagnosed with degenerative disk disease in my low back 30 years ago, I've managed to avoid getting it cut on, tho the word "degenerative" doesn't really add up to it getting all better. I get around and still manage to do stuff, tho not real fast and certainly not nimble. HA! Getting old is hell but sure beats not getting any older! RAY

For a long time I wondered why it was my right hip that went bad. I am right hand dominate so I tend to carry loads on my right shoulder. You know the drill 3/4 sheet of plywood carry it on your dominate side and that is the side that wears out. Very good surgeons can do wonders for you. Before I had my hip rebuilt I had to lift my leg with my hand to move my foot from the gas to the brake. Now I can climb a ladder one foot after the other in a normal fashion while carrying a paint bucket and brush.

Well, Ray is NOT the only one, me too. I was told by the "wise man" If I can help it, do not get old, but I could not help it. And yes I think it's better than the alternative.

Getting old is mandatory but growing up is optional.

Gulyás · Post by **Gulyás** » Thu Sep 27, 2012 21:53

Very true. You are wise too.

If it is broken get it fixed. I am much too young to accept the idea that I will just continue to run down. My car is 25 and as long as I can get parts for it I will keep it. I know some very good Doctors that can do wonders with body repairs. When I had my back and hip repaired I told people that I had gotten new ball joints and shock absorbers installed and that I was good for another 50,000 miles. This week I was told that my head lights require some maintenance.

The only problem I can see with fixing up old cars is, that the fixings always have the very latest price. Parts and labor too.

For a few hundred dollars you can get a car that you are completely familar with and will last for another year. My car with all of the repairs and the purchase price has cost me about $1000 per year for 150,000 miles of driving. The chassis has nearly 300,000 miles on it and the rebuilt engine has about 95,000 miles.

It will still be goose. So far I have to agree. I did brine them over night and smoke them at 155 deg internal temp, so I didn't kill myself.I also used different rubs. It is not very good at all. IT does look good though. Anybody have a miracle recipe.

Just wondering, what kind of geese? A specklebelly is worthy of Thanksgiving dinner, a honker is worth a dinner or making sausage out of, snow geese go great in the compost pile. Don't get me wrong, a snow goose is still a runnin'-ton-o-fun for a labrodor retriever, and that's about the only reason I'll walk out to a blind anymore. I turned last years snow geese into dog-food for Booboo Dog, she seemed happy with the results, she like to smile.
