Categories     Side Dish

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 Large Mushrooms
3 Stalks of Celery
1 Onion
1 Loaf of Bread
1 1/2 Tablespoons Poultry Seasoning
1/4 Cup Dried Parsley
1/2 Cup Raisins
Salt and Pepper
1 Cup Boiling Water
1 Pack OXO Chicken Stalk
1 Spoonful Butter

Steps:

  • Combine all Ingredients under the first section of Dry Ingredients in a large bowl.
  • Boil a cup of water and add the butter and chicken OXO into it.
  • Drizzle the water, butter, and chicken stalk mixture over your dry ingredients bowl while stirring it all together. All of the dry ingredients should be moist.
  • Stuff Turkey with about half of the stuffing mixture. This stuffing will cook inside the turkey as the turkey cooks. A stuffed turkey may take a bit longer to cook than a turkey that is unstuffed, so take that into consideration when timing your turkey.
  • After stuffing the turkey tie the turkeys legs together to hold it all in.
  • With the turkey in a roasting pan, cover the turkey in Tin Foil and Cook at 350 degrees for 20 minutes a pound.
  • The other half of the stuffing can be cooked separately in a casserole dish. Just cover with tinfoil and cook for 1 hour at 325 degrees.
  • Remove tin foil from the turkey about 30 minutes before the turkey should be done to help the turkey brown. And when the turkey is done remove from oven and let sit for a few minutes.
  • Remove stuffing from inside of the turkey and mix with other stuffing that was cooked separately. The stuffing cooked inside the turkey will be much more moist than the other, so when mixed together they become the best turkey stuffing ever!

MOM'S AWESOME STUFFING



Mom's Awesome Stuffing image

This is my mom's recipe. I was raised on stuffing (my parents are from up north but now live in the south), not dressing so if I want stuffing when I have a turkey I either have to go to my mom's house or I have to make it myself. My mom is not a recipe kind of person but I helped her make it (so I could learn) and wrote it down as we went. These are all appoximations since I tend to vary the amounts as I cook it just like she does in her cooking. One thing is for sure, it's delicious!!! Oh yeah, it makes enough for an army... I am not sure about the cooking time, it could be more, depending if you cook it in a turkey or less if not, for the most part everything is cooked except the vegetables. ENJOY!

  • Cook Pepperidge Farm stuffing according to directions on package.
  • Mix sausage, part of grease, cooked stuffing and all other ingredients, cooking on low on stovetop, continue to cook a while and taste, cook and taste.
  • When it taste to your liking, you can either put it in the oven for 350 degrees for an hour or hour and a half or the best way is to stuff the turkey loosely with it. Don't forget to sew the turkey. If you do stuff the turkey, you will most likely have extra stuffing so you will have to bake some of it in a oven safe dish like I was talking about before.
  • If you cook it in a dish in the stove, make sure you stir it every 20-30 minutes.
