Categories     side-dish

Time 1h35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 stick unsalted butter, plus more for the dish
1 pound loose breakfast sausage (or use links and remove the casings)
2 onions, chopped
4 stalks celery, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
2 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 large eggs
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
16 cups stale 1/2-inch country white bread cubes (about 2 pounds)

Add the sausage and cook, breaking up the meat, until no longer pink, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the onions, celery, sage and thyme and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat.
  • Whisk the eggs and parsley in a large bowl. Add the bread cubes and sausage-broth mixture and toss until evenly combined. Transfer to the prepared baking dish, dot with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and cover with foil.

ROASTED PORK LOIN WITH SAUSAGE, CORNBREAD STUFFING



Roasted Pork Loin with Sausage, Cornbread Stuffing image

Provided by Robert Irvine : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons grapeseed oil, plus 2 tablespoons
1 small onion, diced
1/2 pound ground Italian pork sausage
2 cups prepared and crumbled cornbread
1 teaspoon chopped fresh sage leaves
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
2 egg whites, whipped to form peaks
4 tablespoons heavy cream
3 tablespoons melted butter
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 (2-pound) piece pork loin

Steps:

  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons of oil and the onions. Saute until the onions are translucent. In the same skillet, add the sausage meat and cook until all the sausage has changed color and is cooked, about 5 minutes. Add the cornbread and fresh herbs and continue to cook for another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to rest until cool.
  • When cool add the whipped egg whites, heavy cream and melted butter and stir to combine. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Make a cut 1/4-inch from the top of the loin down the full length and roll the pork cutting at the same time, this will give you a flat piece of meat ( if you were to roll it back up it would look like it did before you cut it). Evenly spread the stuffing over the flattened pork loin and then re-roll it back to the original form.
  • Tie together with butcher's twine, so the loin is tied every 1 to 2 inches. Refrigerate for about 1 hour to rest and firm up a bit.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Using a large skillet over high heat, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of grapeseed oil and sear the whole pork loin until golden brown all over, then transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 15 to 17 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F.
  • Check the pork temperature after 10 minutes, as some ovens cook faster than others, and we don't want the meat to overcook. The loin should be removed from the oven when it reaches an internal temperature of 135 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Transfer the loin to a cutting board and cover with aluminum foil, to rest for 5 minutes. It will continue to cook and reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. Slice the pork and arrange on a serving platter to serve.

SHIRLEY'S SAUSAGE STUFFING



Shirley's Sausage Stuffing image

My mom made the BEST stuffing, which always made our holiday dinners complete. Here is her recipe, and mine as well. There is enough stuffing in this recipe to stuff up to a 25 pound bird, and still have some left over to bake in a casserole dish or aluminum foil, the last hour of cooking, so that you have plenty for everyone. Great to use for leftovers along with some sliced turkey and cranberry sauce, for a DELICIOUS sandwich... Enjoy!

Categories     Pork

Time 3h25m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 (1 lb) rolls Jimmy Dean sausage
1 1/2 cups margarine or 1 1/2 cups butter
turkey gizzards, chopped fine (optional) or turkey gizzard, ground (optional)
turkey neck, heart, chopped fine (optional) or turkey neck, heart ground (optional)
turkey liver, chopped fine (optional) or turkey liver, ground (optional)
1 1/2 cups onions, chopped fine
6 celery ribs, chopped fine
12 cups bread, crumbled
1 (16 ounce) box nabisco saltine crackers, crushed
3 -5 teaspoons poultry seasoning, to taste
1 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • In a saucepan over med. heat, boil the fresh pork sausage and gizzards, along with the margarine, onions, and celery, in 1 quart of water, for 30 minutes Strain, saving water.
  • Put the onions, celery, and sausage in a lg. bowl, and set aside.
  • Put the gizzards, and meat picked from the neck, in a blender, and press chop. (Do it quickly, and stop to mix meats, then pulse for 1-2 seconds again. You do not want it to be mushy). When all is chopped fine, put in the lg. bowl, along with onions, celery, and sausage.
  • You may also grind the gizzards, and other meat parts in a meat grinder instead of the blender if you have one.
  • Add to the sausage, onion and celery.
  • When ready to stuff the bird and bake:.
  • In a lg. bowl crumble your bread, crust and all, (I roll the bread between my hands to crumble it).
  • Crush the crackers right in the closed sleeves, (but be careful not to push too fast or you may open the pkg). When crushed, open the sleeve and put in the bowl, along with the bread. Mix up well.
  • Mix the meat mixture with the dry mixture.
  • Add enough liquid from the sausage, gizzards, heart and neck stock (a little at a time), to make the stuffing to the desired consistency, of if not using these parts, use some chicken or turkey broth.
  • Toss with a fork, until well mixed. Gently knead the mixture to distribute the ingredients.
  • (The stuffing should have enough liquid so it holds together in a ball if you squeeze it in your hands, but not mushy, especially if you are stuffing your turkey, as the juices from the turkey make it moist as it is cooking.
  • Add poultry seasoning, tasting as you go, to get it the way you like it.
  • Salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Stuff the bird right before putting it in the oven. DO NOT stuff the bird and let it sit overnight in the refrigerator.
  • The stuffing should be warm or room temperature when you are ready to put it in the bird.
  • Plan to use 3/4 cup stuffing for each pound of turkey.
  • To stuff the neck, first pack it loosely with stuffing.
  • Pin the neck skin over the exposed stuffing with a skewer, or flip the wing tips up to hold it in place.
  • Spoon stuffing loosely in the main body cavity.
  • Cover exposed stuffing with a swatch of aluminum foil or a piece of bread.
  • Roast turkey using desired method. I bake mine at 350, and go by the pounds on the turkey label for the hours needed to roast.
  • Baste turkey with pan drippings at least 3 times during cooking time to get nice crispy skin, and help to keep turkey moist.
  • Use a meat thermometer to make sure the center of the stuffing reaches 165 degrees F before removing from the oven.
  • Keep in mind that a "pop-up" thermometer that comes with a turkey won't tell you the temperature of the stuffing.
  • Place any extra stuffing in a baking dish coated with cooking spray. Cover, and refrigerate until ready to bake, NO MORE THAN 8 hours before cooking the bird.
  • Pour 1/2 cup turkey or chicken stock over the extra stuffing, and bake at 350, for 30-60 minutes covered with aluminum foil.
  • After the turkey is done roasting, remove stuffing immediately from the bird, and place in a bowl. (I use an aluminum bowl and cover with aluminum foil to keep it nice and hot, until serving time.
  • Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours of taking out of the oven.
  • Store leftover turkey and stuffing in shallow containers with covers, and use within 2-3 days.
  • You may freeze but use within 3 months.
  • Tips & Warnings:.
  • Avoid pre-stuffed fresh turkeys, and DO NOT stuff birds to cook on a grill or smoker, or if you plan to deep fry.
  • Always stuff a bird just BEFORE roasting.
  • The stuffing should be warm, NOT hot or cold, when you pack it in the bird, otherwise the roasting time will be off, and the temperature will not reach 165 degrees F before the rest of the bird is done.
  • Don't overstuff the turkey, because the stuffing will expand as the bird roasts.
  • Following these simple steps is the safest way to stop airborne bacteria from invading your turkey and stuffing and making you sick.
