Everyone loved to come to our house for Thanksgiving because my Dad made the best stuffing! There was never any left over.This will stuff a 16 - 20 lb. turkey, plus some! Ingredients:
1 lb sausage (good quality) |
3 (6 ounce) boxes kellogg's croutettes ((or your favorite herb seasoned cubed stuffing) |
1 large onion, diced |
4 stalks celery, sliced |
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning |
1/4 cup butter |
8 ounces chicken livers |
turkey giblets |
turkey neck bone |
4 -5 cups water |
Directions:
1. In large pan (dutch oven) brown sausage, scrambling while browning until sausage is in small pieces.
2. Do not drain!
3. Add onion, celery, butter, poultry seasoning, chicken livers, giblets, turkey neck bone, and water.
4. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for 90 minutes.
5. Remove livers, giblets, and neck bone.
6. Discard neck bone, chop livers and giblets into small pieces and return to stock.
7. Put Croutettes into large bowl.
8. Add stock with meat and vegetables until all croutons are well moistened.
9. You will use most if not all of the stock, as you want the croutettes to be very moist.
