1 (10 pound) goose
Salt and pepper
1 medium apple, peeled and quartered
1 navel orange, peeled and quartered

Sprinkle the goose cavity with salt and pepper. Place the apple, orange and lemon in the cavity. Place goose breast side up on a rack in a large shallow roasting pan. Prick skin well with a fork. Pour water into pan.
