Does someone have any tips for cooking a Christmas goose?

My first time to cook a goose (why I picked a major holiday event at my home to try it I don’t know).Looking for any tips or ideas.
I heard they were greasy.

    My christmas goose is already cooked. I procrastinated and tried doing last minute shopping but the crowds were so bad you could not even park or move your car for that matter. I guess there are more people like me than I thought. Gulp, I’m a dead duck too for not getting those presents bought. It’s off to the atm for me and my “peeps” will get cash this year. Deck the halls with christmas geese, fa la la la la ——

    This is my specialty

    Marinate the Goose in vinegar to for 6 hours to kill all of the bacteria.
    Next put the Goose in a roasting dish.
    Next you mix the following ingredients.
    1 cup honey
    1/2 cup of milk (low fat the better)
    1/4 cup of vinegar
    1/4 cup of mayo
    Stir the ingredients and pour about 1/2 over the Goose.
    Pre heat the oven at 350 and cook for 4 hours.
    Take out every 30 mins and put more of the mixture on it for flavor.

    ENJOY!!!
