This recipe is perfect for anyone who is roasting a very fatty fowl, or other meat. Duck and Goose as you know is very fatty; pork roasts can be very fatty, as well. Having said that, this is my recipe of choice for Christmas dinner this year. I am preparing a goose on the barbeque. I will tweek it by deleting the salt; there is sufficient in the Chicken Broth; will also exchange the canned cranberry sauce for my own "SUGAR-FREE WHOLE BERRY, CRANBERRY SAUCE". I pinched this recipe from Sobey's supermarket flyer
