Continue filling and rolling the rest until all the stuffing has been used.

Stir vegetable mixture into corn bread. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.) Mix eggs into stuffing.
• To bake stuffing in turkey:
• Add 1/2 up chicken broth to stuffing and mix thoroughly. Fill main turkey cavity with stuffing. Mix enough chicken broth into remaining stuffing to moisten (about 1/2 to 3/4 cup chicken broth, depending on amount of remaining stuffing). Spoon remaining stuffing into buttered baking dish.

CAJUN SEAFOOD CORNBREAD STUFFING (FOR PORK, CHICKEN OR FISH)

Steps:

• Bake cornbread and allow to cool, or use leftover. Crumble into fairly fine crumbs to equal 2 cups.
• Clean and de-vien shrimp, chop into course pieces, 1/2 inch. Save shells.
• In a small sauce pan bring chicken broth to simmer, add shrimp shells and simmer for 20 minutes. Set aside and add the juice from the canned clams.
• Saute onion and celery in butter until tender.
• Meanwhile, combine breadcrumbs and cornbread crumbs, salt, pepper, sage, garlic powder and poultry seasoning, mix well.
• Strain broth into crumb mixture with a fine sieve or colender, discard shells, and give a quick stir. Add soup and eggs and stir well.
• Fold in shrimp and clams.
• Now, here is the important part, you want a really moist mixture that is not too moist. You may have to add broth or water (I used a tad bit of beer he he) You want to be able to use a big soup spoon, not a ladle but one of those huge spoons, scoop up some of the dressing and if a little runs off the sides but still remains heeped up on the spoon, perfect. If nothing runs off the sides of the spoon and you picked up a big ball of stuffing it is too thick. You need to add broth, water, or in my case beer until it forms a rounded peek when scooped instead of a ball.
• Now, your stuffing is ready to cook, boy this is good. Take you a good cut of porkchop, fish, or chicken breast, place each serving on a piece of greased foil big enough to fold the sides of the foil up high enough to hold the stuffing, place the servings on cookie sheet and fill it up with the stuffing. Oh man, this just keeps getting better.
• Depending on how big your pieces of meat are and how much stuffing you put on them will determine on how long you need to cook them. You need to use a meat thermometer to test the doneness. When done, allow to cool 5 minutes, fold back foil and use a spatula to remove onto plate.
• I cook mine at 375 F for about an hour. I use thick cuts and lots of stuffing. This is good stuff man!
• I even make these ahead and freeze them, just thaw and cook.
• Servings, prep and cooking times are estimated as best as I can.

ROASTED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH CAJUN CORNBREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• Butterfly the pork by making a ¾ inch cut down the length of the tenderloin. Be Careful not to cut all the way through. From that cut into the sides, opening the tenderloin as you go like a flap or book. Use a meat mallet to pound the butterflied tenderloin out flat. Season with seasoning mixture on both sides and rub with a little of the olive oil.
• In a large bowl crush up cornbread into large crumbs. Using the butter sauté peppers, onion, garlic and celery until they becomes translucent. Add sausage and continue sautéing until has color on all sides. Add contents in the pan to the cornbread crumbs along with the herbs, then the stock. Add eggs and mix well.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Separate the dressing into 2 equal parts. Put each into the butterflied tenderloin, spreading evenly along the length and out until about 1 inch from each edge. Roll up the tenderloins making sure the dressing is not falling out on the edges. Pan sear all sides in a little olive oil for color. Then place in preheated oven for 10 - 12 minutes.
• Allow pork to rest at least 10 minutes before slicing into ¾ inch rounds.
