Beartso's Famous
Cornbread Stuffing
INGREDIENTS for 10-12 servings (only about 6 if Justin and Sharon are there)
Celery, bunch - 3 cups, chopped
Onion, medium - 1.5 cups, chopped
Butter, melted - 1 cups (2 sticks)
Cornbread, baked - 9 cups (about 1 batch)
White bread, store bought - 9 cups
Seasoning
Salt - 2 tsp
Black pepper - 1 tsp
Sage, dried - 1 Tbsp
Thyme, dried - 2 tsp
DIRECTIONS
Prepare a batch of cornbread according to the package instructions, let cool 2-3 hours
Tear the white bread and corn bread into small chunks and add about half of each (4 cups ea) into a large mixing bowl
Melt the butter in a large sauce pan and saute the onion and celery
When the onion and celery are soft, add the entire mixure over the bread in the bowl from previous step
Start mixing while adding the other half of the bread and cornbread
Mix in each of the seasonings
For best results, cook about half the stuffing inside the turkey and the other half in a glass baking dish for 30 min @ 325 F.
Re-combine the turkey half (it will be wetter and soaked in turkey juice) with the dry half baked in the pan. This results in the perfect texture and ultimate flavor!
