Used 3 cans of clams (instead of 2) and lowered chicken stock to 1/2 can. Skipped the Creole seasoning. Baked in a 13×9 baking dish for 45-50 minutes. It was perfectly moist – not soggy or dry. Everyone at our Thanksgiving table enjoyed this dish – even those that don’t like clams. Will make again. Thank you!
We were having a salad with dinner, so didn’t put celery or onion in mix. I also substituted prosciutto for the sausage, but used ingredient measurements, was perfect amount for 10 people.
I’ve made this recipe for years. There is no limit to all of the ways it can be modified. It’s a Lousiana tradition!
Made this for the turducken this year. I used the liquid from both cans of oyster pieces as the recipe called for but only one of the cans of actual pieces. The taste of oysters and saltiness overpowered the stuffing. Next time I make a turducken I’ll use regular stuffing.
Loved this stuffing…Was moist and had a great flavor!
Me, my fiancee, and his mother didn’t like this rendition of stuffing but I had others tell me that they liked it and asked for the recipe.
Thanksgiving leftovers isn’t applicable to this recipe. There wasn’t any!
My family raved about this stuffing!! I did add a couple of ingredients just because I had them such as, an orange bell pepper, fresh mushrooms and what I believe really made the difference was I used SMOKED oysters instead of fresh. I’m sure I’ll be making this one every year.
