It think it's called 'Goose Flambé', but the chef often uses a lemon, orange or brandy sauce, rather than a chemical-rich type of coating...

I've always wondered what 'Adventure in Dining' meant. Thanks for the description!

I had to work in the roasting of the turkey between a long run and some sleep. I set the alarm clock time, but forgot to press the SET thing. The turkey was a little overdone when I blearily checked it, but the dogs didn't mind at all. A little kibble over turkey meat beats a little turkey meat over kibble, they said.

But it hadn't advanced to flames yet, and nobody got burned. Didn't even set off the smoke alarm... for once!

Now, where does cooking a goose rate in the actuarial odds? Is it in the top half or the bottom half?

I didn't hear about any turkey fryer episodes around here, either. I think the cop's son down the street laid a solid foundation for educational finger-pointing on that. At least, enough for most young men who were contemplating it to realize that you don't FILL the fryer with oil and then drop in a 30-lb turkey from a height...
