What is your favorite stuffing/dressing recipe for Thanksgiving?

We have all the old style recipies: bread crumbs, onion, celery, butter, broth. Looking for something new and exciting. Any suggestions?What is your favorite stuffing/dressing recipe for Thanksgiving?
I make old fashioned cornbread stuffing.


Make cornbread the day before. Break up into pieces, cover with a dish cloth, and leave on counter til you are ready to use. Mix cornbread with diced onion, diced celery, and poultry spice. Melt a cube of BUTTER with a couple of cups of water and two cans of chicken broth. Mix with dry ingredients. It should be very, very loose. The liquid will evaporate as it cooks, but should leave your stuffing nice and moist. Adjust the amounts of your ingredients for the amount of stuffing you want. Nothing is exact in this recipe. When you add onion and celery you can see if it looks like enough and when you add seasoning and liquid you can taste it and make adjustments. Just make sure you have plenty of liquid.What is your favorite stuffing/dressing recipe for Thanksgiving?
I hope you enjoy it. Remember don't over do the sage or under do the liquid. ( I had forgotten to tell you to add some sage) sorry. Report Abuse

When I was first married in the 60s, a friend had a party just before Christmas and had leftover hamburger buns he had buttered. He was going to throw them all away so I took them home and used them in place of the dried bread crumbs I usually used. It was so much of a hit that my mother has even tossed her recipe to use mine.

The main ingredients in my stuffing are, celery, onion, pork sausage, dried apricots, toasted sliced almonds and a touch of orange liquor....ChefGuy
Kraft stuffing. Easy too and tastes delicious
I prefer corn bread stuffing. We usually however use my moms recipe, never get it tasting like hers though. Guess she left something off the recipe and took it to her grave. Ive come very close though
Honestly there is SO much out there, I would just go to http://www.foodnetwork.com/ and search recipies for stuffing, I did a search with keyword ';stuffing'; and it returned 508, you are bound to find something a bit new and exciting there!
I make an Italian-American version. I use Baguettes for the bread. Cube them and toss with olive oil, dried herbs, salt and pepper, dump onto a sheet pan and put them in a 400 degree oven until toasted. When done, put them in a big bowl and add browned sweet or hot italian sausage, onions, celery, dried cranberries, walnuts( or chestnuts). I use homemade chicken, turkey or vegetable stock. Mix it altogether and put in abaking dish and top with parmesan cheese. bake until crispy on top. You can add just about anything you like to it.
Add sausage and a can of mushrooms with the juice it really is good and way different from the one you are talking about.
I usually go with Mrs. Cubbison's cornbread dressing with all the stuff you mentioned, but I add Jimmy Dean's sage flavored sausage...OMG! It's fabulous and the sage flavor really makes a difference and the suasage makes the dressing heartier.
Your recipe is great. Try it with cornbread instead of regular bread crumbs. As long as the gravy doesn't have ';giblets'; (I try not to eat animal organs or Brussels sprouts [but I love hot dogs] yucky) in it I'll eat it. Hope that made sense. My sentence structure sucks sometimes.
