- Drizzle enough stock over the bread mixture until it is just moist. Season with poultry seasoning, salt and pepper to taste.Gently toss in reserved neck meat, heart, gizzard and liver.Use to stuff a turkey, or place in a casserole dish, pour an extra 1/2 cup stock over the top, and bake, covered, in a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes, or until hot.
