The problem with goose initially seems to be the size - but about an
hour into roasting you realise it is actually all the amazing fat that
drips off it. The sensible thing to do is have the goose in a dish
with holes in that lets the fat drip down onto the spuds in a deep
dish underneath. But that requires a big oven and so the conversation
loops again...

Cheers,
  Edmund.
