You're probably asking about a wild goose. I can't help there, but here's one for a domestic (grocery store) goose. Lot's of fat, so cut away obvious excess fat, and puncture (breast,thighs,legs) very liberally with a fork (so fat will drip out while cooking). Rub outside with salt,pepper,paprika. Make a stuffing of red onions, green apples and cornbread mix. Chop the onions & apples and mix it all with a little milk to get it wet, and knead. Stuff the breast cavity. Roast stuffed goose in a pan in oven for 20-25 minutes a pound at 375-400. (I've also done it in a pan on a covered gas grill). Use a temperature gauge if you have one. If the skin is good & brown, but it still needs to cook, you can put a piece of tinfoil on top to stop/slow further browning. This is a classic Christmas Goose. Many stores don't regularly carry them, but should be able order one.
