Which is fine if you have a temperature probe you can leave in and get remote readings from but if you're constantly having to remove something to check the temperature it's a pain.
-
Raymond was 230c for 30 mins then 150c for 35 mins or until the Goose was 55c. When I checked it after 30 mins ours was already over 70c.
It was by no means ruined and still tasty but was annoying given how far off the timings seemed to be. Ours was a pretty small bird and not a super meaty crown so maybe that played a role.
-
Goose turned out pretty good, confit legs were excellent and the gravy spot on. The crown was a little disappointing, followed Raymond Blanc's instructions but half way through the cooking time when I checked the internal temperature it was already above what I was looking for. Meant it was a little more done than I'd have liked. I confit the gizzards as well and they were great chopped up in the sprouts in lieu of bacon.

Good shout £6.80 off Amazon and will arrive tomorrow, annoyed I completely forgot to pack mine.
@dancing James yeah this was the way I was leaning. I'll have a Google of internal temps for the crown.
@jdsnape thanks for the tips, looking forward to it.

Cooking Goose at my in laws this Christmas and I'm looking for a little advice on how to cook it.
Recipes online seem split between taking off the legs and cooking them separately to the crown or roasting as a whole bird. I'm leaning to doing the legs separately.
As I'm at my in laws I'm without sous vide wand, temperature probe and have an unusual oven to contend with so will be reliant on timings, oven temperatures and touch.
Has anyone got a fool proof method they're up for sharing?

LFGSS and Microcosm shutting down 16th March 2025 (the day before the Online Safety Act is enforced)
Such sad news, it's enuinely my favourite thing on the Internet. An amazing hive mind and knowledge bank.
Thanks @Velocio for your work keeping things going for as long as you have, I'll miss the site immensely.

Having tried plenty of recipes for traditional Basque Cheesecakes the below recipe is the best I've found. Main thing to test is cooking time in your oven as that's the thing that seems to vary the most between kitchens.

Selling my Garmin 830
It was in great condition until a few weeks ago when I dropped it and cracked the top of the screen. It still works and it's been fine in the wet and dry I've tested it. Fortunately the crack is not on a part of the screen that you touch so it is cosmetic and does not affect use.
However, that being said I've knocked 50% off the price I was going to be listing it at.
Available for £50 collected from Walton on Thames or £53.50 posted.

The key thing with European purchases these days is finding a small retailer who doesn't properly understand the new rules. If you're lucky you can get shops that will exclude the VAT but let you place an order under the £135 threshold meaning it sails through UK customs. The bigger shops R2 bike etc have minimum order amounts (over £135) meaning you'll get picked up by UK Customs.
-
Plus import duties and VAT though (if getting delivered to the UK)

Yeah still available, drop me a pm

We sadly live in a world where the mainstream media in this country is anti-cyclists. Not running red lights is one small thing we can all (easily) do to not give reasons to car drivers to fuel that dislike.

It was indeed, there's potential for the in laws oven to be hotter than the dials indicate but everything else cooked to their expected timings.
