2218. BACON-WRAPPED JALAPENO SNOW GOOSE

makes 12 wraps


6 strips bacon
6 teaspoons cream cheese
1 average sized snow goose breast
pickled sliced jalapeno peppers

Cut the bacon strips in half, so you have 12 pieces of bacon. Clean the goose breast of any silver skin or fat. Slice the breast across the grain into strips about ¼ inch by 1 ½ inches. You should have about 12 pieces. Lay four of the bacon strips down on a cutting board. Place one slice of goose across each strip of bacon. On top of the goose place one heaping teaspoon of cream cheese. On top of the cream cheese place one (or two, if you like it a bit hotter) pickled jalapeno slices. Roll the bacon around the goose, cream cheese and jalapeno. Skewer with a tooth pick to hold together. Repeat with remaining 8 slices of bacon and goose breast. Heat barbeque grill on high. When grill is hot, place wraps on grill. Cook about 5 minutes on each side and until the bacon is done the way you like it, but do not cook too long as the goose will become tough. Remove from grill and serve.
