A frozen goose is perfectly adequate.

Prick the goose well all over, the breast and upper legs.
Holding the skewer almost parallel with the bird to avoid piercing the flesh.
Fill a large pot 2/3 full of water

for 1 minute (till goose bumps arise.)

(schmaltz lovers, send up a cheer) You can strain this fat through a coffee filter,

When meat is done (be patient, it may take a while), raise the heat to 400 degrees.
Remove roaster from the oven and transfer bird (rack and all) to a jelly roll pan.
Put it back in the oven for 15 minutes to further crisp and brown the bird.
Take it out and let it sit, uncovered for a half an hour.

put that in the oven, remove the fat from the roaster and put it over 2
