Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Butter a 3-quart baking dish. Put cubed Cornbread and Italian bread on 2 separate rimmed baking sheets and bake until very dry, about 20 minutes. Let cool and combine in a large bowl. Increase the oven temperature to 375 degrees F.
- Meanwhile, cook the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until nicely browned and the fat has rendered out, 15 to 18 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a paper-towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the sausage fat.
- Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in the skillet with the sausage fat. Add the celery and onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, 8 minutes. Stir in the sage, thyme, red pepper flakes, nutmeg and garlic and continue cooking and stirring until the herbs are fragrant, 2 minutes. Pour in the white wine, bring to a simmer, and cook until the liquid is almost completely absorbed, 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and add to the bread cubes along with the sausage, vegetables, turkey broth, oysters, oyster liquor and eggs. Season with the salt and black pepper and toss to coat.
- Spread the dressing mixture into the baking dish and bake, covered with foil, 25 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking uncovered until well browned and crusty, about 30 minutes longer.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place a large 12-inch cast-iron skillet into the oven.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Combine the buttermilk, 2 tablespoons of the melted butter and the eggs in a spouted measuring cup. Whisk the buttermilk mixture into the cornmeal mixture until just combined.
- Carefully remove the cast-iron skillet from the oven and pour in the remaining 2 tablespoons melted butter. Pour the cornbread batter into the skillet and spread evenly. Bake until the top is browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 minutes. Let the cornbread cool in pan for 10 minutes before turning out onto a cooling rack.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375˚ F and butter a 9-by-13-inch or other 3-quart baking dish. Put the potatoes in a large pot; cover with water and season with salt. Bring to a simmer; cook until the potatoes are tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain and keep warm.
- Meanwhile, spread the bread on a baking sheet and bake until lightly toasted around the edges, about 5 minutes.
- Combine 1 tablespoon butter and the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, breaking up the meat into pieces with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 4 minutes. Add 7 tablespoons butter, the onion and celery; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 8 minutes. Stir in the thyme, sage and poultry seasoning, then add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- Whisk the half-and-half with the eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Add the warm potatoes and mash; season with salt. Mix in the bread and the sausage mixture. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in the microwave. Transfer the stuffing mixture to the baking dish, then drizzle with the melted butter.

Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your stuffing. Fresh oysters are best, but if you can't find them, frozen oysters will work. Just be sure to thaw them before using.
- Don't overcook the oysters. They should be cooked just until they are opaque. Overcooking will make them tough and rubbery.
- Use a variety of seasonings. This will add depth and flavor to your stuffing. Some good options include thyme, sage, rosemary, and garlic.
- Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make sausage and oyster stuffing. Feel free to add your own favorite ingredients or adjust the seasonings to your taste.
