Southern Cornbread Stuffing

Total Time: 1 hr Cook Time: 1 hr

Ingredients

• Servings: 6
• 1 1/2 cups butter
• 1 1/2 cups celery, chopped
• 1 1/2 cups onions, chopped
• 2 quarts day old bread, crumbled
• 1 1/2 quarts cornbread, crumbled
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 tablespoon sage
• 1 tablespoon black pepper
• 1 -2 cup chicken broth

Recipe

• 1 in a skillet sweat/soften the celery and onion till tender and transparent.
• 2 combine breads and seasonings in a large bowl. stir in vegetables and butter mixture and then add in chicken broth to reach the desired moistness you prefer. normally i use about two cans. this can vary depending on how dry and absorbent your bread crumbs are.
• 3 at this point you can stuff a bird with the mixture but i tend to just place the dressing in a buttered casserole dish.
• 4 bake at 350* for about 1 hour till desired doneness. i like the dressing moist inside and crusty around the edges.
