Excellent. We use regular breakfast sausage and turns out great

I’ve made this stuffing every year now for about 6. Everyone loves it! This year I made it up to the point where you add the broth and cornbread. At this point I refrigerated it and the next day warmed it on the stove and then added the cornbread and broth and placed it in the oven. I think it was even tastier having marinated for a day in its own yummy juices AND it made my work load less on TG day. So tasty, yummy, easy, really great!

EXCELLENT and easy recipe! Made this for Thanksgiving and I’m making it again for Christmas! You won’t be disappointed!

Great recipe!!! Did take two suggestions made before 1 used Jimmy Dean’s Sage Sausage instead of the Italian and 2 Made it the day before Thanksgiving up to the point of putting in the oven. On Thanksgiving day, brought to room tempature and baked according to instructions. This made for a great time saver on the actual day.

This was my first year making this recipe and I will diffidently be making next year. My husband is not a fan of stuffing but loved this one. Very easy to make, so no worries for you first timers making Thanksgiving or Christmas. Your guest will be very impressed. Try to make the last hour before your turkey is done so it will stay moist.

I make this every year (always a double or triple batch for Thanksgiving and Christmas and it’s great each time. I like my stuffing wet vice dry so I add a bit more chicken stock and also double the sausage. Store bought bread cubes and cornbread stuffing is all you need.
