Is a goose as good or better than turkey? Or worse?

Never cooked it and have eaten it once. Goose meat was darker, richer and probably more flavorful.

much better than turkey
basically all dark meat, rich and flavorful

be advised, roasting a goose produces an amount of rendered fat that you haven’t seen before. Roast it on a rack over a deep pan and drain it once or twice (save for cooking potatoes)

It’s much worse than turkey and it’s not close.

I had one cooked for a Christmas. It was cooked properly. Dry. Barely any meat when compared to a turkey. Movies have romanticized it.

A brined and roasted turkey is tough to beat

Edit to say we aren’t taking about speckle bellied goose breast but whatever goose one can buy at a grocery store around this time of year.

I smoked one a few years ago. That was my first and last goose. It somehow managed to be dry and greasy at the same time. The meat was tough and had a strange taste I wasn't into. It had the added plus of being super expensive.

I guess it's possible I didn't cook it long enough. I know I brought it higher than 165 to render the fat. 180 or something. If you're going to do it I would recommend having some gravy or sauce on hand for sure.

To each his own but turkey is far superior IMO.
