Serves 18
1 chopped medium onion
1/2 lb sausage
1/4 cup butter or margarine
2 cups thinly sliced celery
3 eggs beaten
1 cup shredded carrots
1 tbsp poultry seasoning
Salt & Pepper to taste
12 cups cubed day old bread
Several days before you need to make your dressing, cube or
break up about 12 cups of day old bread. Store, loosely covered so
partial drying will take place during storage.
De-fat sausage by cooking in a sieved double boiler over low heat
until all sausage is cooked and fat has dripped into hot water
below. Set aside to cool.
In a very large container, toss dried bread with vegetables and
poultry seasoning. Mix melted butter and eggs, then sprinkle over
bread/vegetable mixture and mix well.
If dressing is too dry, sprinkle with milk until it feels the right
consistency. (Please note that the dressing will become moister
during the baking process). Finally, add the sausage and mix well.
Stuff turkey just prior to baking, or cook stuffing in a crockpot for
approximately
3-1/2 hours on low.
