I have been using your recipe for four years now and receive compliments every time. Now I’m the designated dressing/stuffing person. Thank you for sharing this 💜
This recipe is the Best! The idea of a savory bread pudding is spot on. Crust off, yes indeed. I find it's the closest thing to actual stuffing from inside the bird. Chef's kiss!
I'm here every November and I make this every year. My family and my extended family always gets me to make this stuffing wherever we have Thanksgiving. I'll never use another recipe again. Thank you for your video, it has gotten me many complements for this amazing stuffing. Happy Thanksgiving.
Nice! My Mother always made the best moist stuffing out of the bird very similar to this. Unfortunately, after a couple health issues she forgot how she make it, and none of us had written it down. Lesson learned, always write down family recipes in case something happens and for future generations. The only thing I will change is to use sweet Italian sausage. Thank you so much for showing us this recipe. I have been missing a good sausage baked stuffing!
I made this yesterday for our family’s Thanksgiving festivities and it was an absolute hit! Best dressing I’ve ever made and by far, the best tasting stuffing I’ve ever had. Thank you for sharing!
I made this for Thanksgiving this year. First time I ever made my own stuffing. It was fantastic !!!! Literally the best stuffing I’ve ever had. I’ll be making this randomly throughout the year. Thanks for this recipe!!
Did a test run today and it was awesome! Only 2 additions were mushrooms and deglazed pan with 1/3 C Vermouth before pouring in chix stock. Thank you 😊
Just found this. It's the same way I've been making my stuffing every year for over 40 years. Everybody always wants more! I was just lazy and didn't want to try and write my recipe down. Also I don't exactly measure everything, just put it in till "it looks like enough". I used this for measuring guide and it was spot on. I learned from my grandmot6her, and I bet he got this recipe from some old granny that knew how to cook, too. Hope he made more videos, he's GOOD!
I made this substituting the sausage for Italian sausage, using artisano white bread (all I could find), and dried parsley, and it was sooo good!! Everyone loved it. Will be making it again next year!!
I usually do my own stuffing for turkey but since we only bought turkey parts this Thanksgiving, I decided to make dressing. I used your recipe and it, not only was delicious and easy, but a big hit! I'll be making your recipe again for sure. Thank you for sharing.
I made your stuffing for Thanksgiving here in Canada! I’m about to prep to make this for Christmas dinner. It’s absolutely delicious. Who needs turkey haha. I would be happy to have just this stuffing and gravy. But I’ll make the turkey anyway Merry Christmas. I’m thrilled to have this recipe. Note: I didn’t change a thing. Perfect!!!’
Yes! That's done right! Thank you. I thought that everyone had forgotten how to cook it right! Thanks again. Roasted chestnuts and raisins make it the way my mom did it!
Same here. Omg how many times do,I try to chop it up with spoons or spatulas to get it nice and small for tacos! Definitely a game changer. I have one too!
I found your stuffing recipe last year. It’s my go to recipe for every turkey dinner. I always stuffed the bird. Never considered cooking separately. But I’m doing it this way now. I love the flavour and moistness. Beautiful thx
Thank you. This is almost identical to my buffet recipe, but it's been almost 15 years since I used that recipe. I start by skinning my turkeys, and freezing the skins on baking sheets. I boil my turkey, separating light/dark meat, and then roasting the bones. I add the roasted bones to the broth from boiling to make my stock. That stock is what I use for liquid in the stuffing, and I top it with the frozen turkey skin and let that brown and crisp up, leaving all my stuffing very custardy. The rest of the stock is used for reheating the meat for serving, and for making the gravy. If I have enough, I even put some stock into the mashed taters. I'm only cooking for 20 to 30 this year, so not sure if I'll be able to do my full buffet technique, but I'll at least make the dressing like this.
I made fresh cornbread and used a combination of boxed bread crumbs and fresh cornbread. Famous Dave’s cornbread mix. Half and half. The best dressing ever!!
That sounds good , where do you buy famous Dave’s cornbread mix? I live in Southern California so I’m hoping I can buy it at my local grocery store. I will definitely try this one for sure 😊
pretty darn close to Grammas recipe. we also add Chopped gizzards and turkey neck. stuffing itself it a meal friends and family say. sage stuffin always my favorite!!
Thank you! Can't wait to try this. I've been looking for a classic stuffing recipe. Of all the stuffing recipes I've seen, this is the only one that gets it right in my opinion.
Heck with waiting for Thanksgiving! I'm making this stuffing this weekend! Oh, man that's the first out-of-bird recipe I've seen that looks as moist and good as the cup or two you would get out of the bird.
Not a bad recipe. I would have reduced the eggs as I like a more dense, loafy stuffing and this was fairly eggy. I would have added a lot more fresh sage and/or some ground sage. Of course I had XL eggs. The most important test will be cold and straight from the fridge at 11pm.
Usually get filipino sausage but couldn't get to the Asian market ( live 2hours up the mountain) So will try yours. Sounds about how we like ours! I will add dry cranberries ( grew up on raisins however family doesn't like). And boom LOVE IN A PAN! HAPPY THANKSGIVING, WE ALL HAVE ALOT TOO BE THANKFUL FOR 👍❤️👍
I made this and it turned out great. Everybody loved it. My only advice is, use a couple less ounces of chicken broth. It came out a little watery. But still, it was delicious.
Man!!!!😍that looks very delicious stuffing will always be my favorite part of thanksgiving thanks so much for sharing have a awesome blessed day today in Jesus Christ our Lord GOD and savor JESUS CHRIST BY
I like my sausage stuffing a bit dryer,. Also I really brown the heck out of that sausage and caramelized the onion. . My father use to make this every Thanksgiving, and it was a hit every year.
Is it better to cook right after mixing the ingredients or should I refrigerate it for a day to give the flavors time to blend? Or does it not make a difference?
Did this with a loaf of sourdough. So good! I like my stuffing a little more dry. Going for rustic sourdough this year.... cant wait to bring up politics
The way I learned it was if it's cooked inside the bird it was stuffing and if cooked around the outside of the bird it was dressing...makes sense to me.
What if you are like me (and a lot of folks) who don't like a moist dressing and prefer a dryer consistency like that of Stove-Top Stuffing? How would we modify this recipe?
easy, omit the eggs and cook it longer. Cover it for the first part of the cook, then take the foil off and let it dry out. Having said that, if you like Stove Top, you probably won't like this. It's a different animal completely. Miles better, but then again, I've never liked Stove Top.
Hello, Has anyone done what the video suggests and stored this uncooked stuffing for THREE days in the fridge before baking? I want to do that, but after reading all the warnings about stuffing, I'm scared now.
This dressing was okay, but it didn't wow me. It was definitely moist and the right consistency. I have a few comments, though. 1) I couldn't find sage sausage, so I used breakfast sausage (Johnsonville patties) as suggested. Not the flavor I was looking for, unfortunately. 2) My breadcrumbs did more than dry out. Some were a little burnt at both ends of the pans. 3) The sausage absorbed all the butter in the pot and did not leave any for the onions and celery. I had to add more. 4) It took an hour (not 45 minutes)for the dressing to reach 150 degrees. All in all, not a bad recipe, but I think because of the sausage I used it did not taste great.
This looks amazing! Question: my aunt is allergic to eggs, and most stuffing recipes I've seen for stuffing call for eggs. I'm trying to find a recipe for a meat stuffing (like how this one has sausage) but with no eggs, or at least a suitable egg substitute. Any ideas?
Salt and pepper at any point? Is it assumed the breakfast/Italian sausage and stock have all the salt needed? The safe route is to add no salt until it’s cooked and before adding raw eggs. Then salt for taste. Otherwise if you season raw sausage like you’d season normal fresh meat you can end up with an inedible dish.
We don’t like sausage so we leave it out. I also use half unsweetened cornbread and half white bread. I bake my cornbread a couple days early. Crumble it up in big cubes and dry it for 2 days first.
Every Thanksgiving when I make this stuffing, I remember my mom, that used to make it like this, R.I.P, love you.
I have been using your recipe for four years now and receive compliments every time. Now I’m the designated dressing/stuffing person. Thank you for sharing this 💜

I've been put in charge of stuffing this year. Have never made it before but after watching this video i feel pretty good about this.

Just found this recipe. Can’t wait to try it too. What type of bread did you use ?
Can you make this in advance or does it get too saggy?

Excellent I made it for the Canadian thanksgiving delicious, i used Jalepeno sausage instead
Banger, this should be the top result
I made this and it turned out great. Everybody loved it.
My only advice is, use a couple less ounces of chicken broth. It came out a little watery. But still, it was delicious.
I agree with this! Mine came out a little watery as well.
So maybe 3 cups in total, not 4?
@@andrewrock35 No more than 3.5

I made this last year and it was soooooo good. Making it this year too!
I’ve been searching for a great stuffing recipe and so far you my friend is a winner! Can’t wait to make it tomorrow for thanksgiving!
I like my sausage stuffing a bit dryer,. Also I really brown the heck out of that sausage and caramelized the onion. .
My father use to make this every Thanksgiving, and it was a hit every year.
thanks for the recipe, my number one fav is always the stuffing thanksgiving is much better with stuffing
That looks simple enough that even I can do it.
My mouth is watering..looks delicious. I will select this recipe to try out this Thanksgiving! Thx!!
I will be test driving this for Thanksgiving, looks good for sure...
Omg my mouth is watering for this stuffing. Thank you for the lovely recipe. Happy Thanksgiving🦃
Don't underestimate the jiggle factor! It's an indication of the perfect consistency and texture.
We don’t eat meat but I loved everything else could I opt it out or would it be too bland??
Thank you for this recipe. Can’t wait to try it.
good job instead of chicken broth. i add milk, I sauté my onions and celery separate.
Because I am a low sodium. I use lean hambuger
Excellent video...I made it exactly as you did...Fantastic.
I am making this tomorrow, except I am using a cornbead mix in there also.
Second year in a row fantastic thank you
😋 thank you for sharing this delicious Staffing😘❤
Looks delicious! I shall make this at Christmas.
Watched a few dressing videos. Yours was one of top/ rest were thrown back to the Locke.
My second time making it looks exactly like your so good
I made this today. It’s delicious
Is it better to cook right after mixing the ingredients or should I refrigerate it for a day to give the flavors time to blend? Or does it not make a difference?
Did this with a loaf of sourdough. So good! I like my stuffing a little more dry. Going for rustic sourdough this year.... cant wait to bring up politics
Love how you were so entertaining
If I want to use bagged sage stuffing cubes, is the weight the same?
I like the way you do this..thanks
This looks amazing
making it this year, cant wait
The way I learned it was if it's cooked inside the bird it was stuffing and if cooked around the outside of the bird it was dressing...makes sense to me.
Se ve excelente 😱😱😱😱hasta hambre me dio
Omg that looks so good 😋
The best recapy 🤘🤘🤘🤘💕🥂🍾
I differently will be making this recipe. People try cooking your turkey like he shows you on his turkey video yummy. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌😄🤗😘
I always have several crustless white Pullman loaves lying around. lol
Did you not see him cut the crust off?
What happened to the butter after the sausage was cooked did you remove it or did it just disappear 😃?
What if you are like me (and a lot of folks) who don't like a moist dressing and prefer a dryer consistency like that of Stove-Top Stuffing? How would we modify this recipe?
easy, omit the eggs and cook it longer. Cover it for the first part of the cook, then take the foil off and let it dry out. Having said that, if you like Stove Top, you probably won't like this. It's a different animal completely. Miles better, but then again, I've never liked Stove Top.
Don't you even THINK of putting gravy on my stuffing!
(:
My fav kind of stuffing ... yess
Looks amazing but I personally don’t like my stuffing like a custard. So I might just skip the scrambled eggs
@@RA82828 ah that makes sense my friend. Thank you. Then I might give it a try. Wish me luck it’s coming around the corner. 😳
The eggs are just a binder, and if you like it a little more dry (like I do), just cook it a little longer.
Looks nice. I will add some chopped apples to mine.
Hello, Has anyone done what the video suggests and stored this uncooked stuffing for THREE days in the fridge before baking? I want to do that, but after reading all the warnings about stuffing, I'm scared now.
By formal wording, dressing is when it is put into a casserole dish. Stuffing is when it is stuffed into the "bird".
Thank you
Simple and nice
When was the black pepper and salt used?
What would this be like without the celery?
This is so good made it today for Thanksgiving this was so good we ate some of it tonight ! this is a winner! thank
you !
OMG that looks so good. 😜
Can I make this day ahead without sacrificing taste and texture?
I actually read directions 😬 my answer in there lol thx
It tastes amazing thank you

All in all, not a bad recipe, but I think because of the sausage I used it did not taste great.
Janice Kociol .....I would add many savoury seasonings such as thyme, rosemary, sage etc, crumbled bacon for a deeper flavor.
This looks amazing! Question: my aunt is allergic to eggs, and most stuffing recipes I've seen for stuffing call for eggs. I'm trying to find a recipe for a meat stuffing (like how this one has sausage) but with no eggs, or at least a suitable egg substitute. Any ideas?
AS M can you buy a vegan egg substitute and just use more of other liquid? Otherwise, I saw a sage onion sausage recipe from BBC Food that had no egg.
@@susie2251 Thank you! I haven't seen any vegan egg substitutes but if you ever come across the link for the BBC one I'd love to see it.
How many people does it serve PLEASE?
Add an apple finely chopped. Trust me
I prefer mine in cider form alongside it. 👍🏽
Looks good
Salt and pepper at any point? Is it assumed the breakfast/Italian sausage and stock have all the salt needed? The safe route is to add no salt until it’s cooked and before adding raw eggs. Then salt for taste. Otherwise if you season raw sausage like you’d season normal fresh meat you can end up with an inedible dish.
Mine is the same but I use cream of mushroom instead of eggs.
We don’t like sausage so we leave it out. I also use half unsweetened cornbread and half white bread. I bake my cornbread a couple days early. Crumble it up in big cubes and dry it for 2 days first.
Everyone knows the rules to stuffing! One bite!
