Goose Rumaki Appetizers

Bite Sized Bacon Wrapped Goose with a Crunch

Rumaki is a popular bite size appetizer that is often prepared with water chestnuts and chicken livers wrapped in sliced bacon, but like so many tasty recipes, you can easily substitute with other ingredients such as waterfowl.

This particular Rumaki recipe uses soy sauce, fresh ginger, honey and other marinade ingredients that add flavor to the cubed goose meat. Marinate, drain and then combine with a crunchy water chestnut securing everything together with a slice of bacon. Grill on high heat until the bacon and goose are cooked through and then watch how fast they disappear.

    Wow! This was excellent flavor with goose. I used goose tenderloins (the best part of the goose) and marinated the goose in whole milk first, for about 18 hours, rinsed and drained off the excess water, and then put the goose in your marinade for about four hours before assembling. Thank you for sharing your wild game recipes! I look forward to trying these again with the goose breast.

    Fantastic party hours hor d’oeuvres. Even folks who turn up their nose at wild game loved these. We marinated the water chestnuts in a sauce very similar to the goose marinade, no honey.
