Cooking time is for a 10-12 pound goose, i strongly suggest to use a meat thermometer for best results --- a 10-12 pound goose with feed about 8 people if you are serving more then i would suggest to make two, you will need to prepare two separate marinades and place the goose into two plastic bags.
