Dees Sausage Stuffing Recipes

TRADITIONAL SAUSAGE STUFFING RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Lightly grease a 9x13 pan.
• Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add in ground sausage and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
• Add in onion and celery and saute until onions are soft and translucent, about 5 to 7 minutes, and sausage is cooked. Add in butter and allow it to melt.
• Whisk in flour until all white specks disappear and cook 2 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth, season with salt and pepper, and whisk to combine. Bring to a boil. Once boiling the mixture will thicken quickly. Once it thickens remove from heat and set aside.
• In a small bowl whisk together the egg and heavy cream. Set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl mix together the stale diced bread*, dried cranberries, and fresh herbs. Slowly pour the cream mixture over it and stir to moisten everything. Then pour the chicken broth and sausage mixture over and stir to combine. Immediately transfer it to the prepared 9x13 pan and spread it out in an even layer.
• Bake at 425 degrees for 30 minutes, until the top starts to brown. Serve hot.

CLASSIC SAUSAGE STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚. Butter a 3-quart baking dish. Melt 6 tablespoons butter in a large wide pot over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up the meat, until no longer pink, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the onions, celery, sage and thyme and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat.
• Whisk the eggs and parsley in a large bowl. Add the bread cubes and sausage-broth mixture and toss until evenly combined. Transfer to the prepared baking dish, dot with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and cover with foil.
• Bake the stuffing until hot, about 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes. Let cool at least 15 minutes before serving.

CLASSIC SAGE AND SAUSAGE STUFFING (DRESSING) RECIPE

Steps:

• Adjust oven racks to lower-middle and upper-middle positions. Preheat oven to 275°F (135°C). Spread bread evenly over 2 rimmed baking sheets. Stagger trays on oven racks and bake until completely dried, about 50 minutes total, rotating trays and stirring bread cubes several times during baking. Remove from oven and allow to cool. Increase oven temperature to 350°F (180°C).
• In a large Dutch oven, melt butter over medium-high heat until foaming subsides (do not allow butter to brown), about 2 minutes. Add sausage and mash with a stiff whisk or potato masher to break up into fine pieces (largest pieces should be no bigger than 1/4 inch). Cook, stirring frequently, until only a few bits of pink remain, about 8 minutes. Add onion, celery, garlic, and sage and cook, stirring frequently, until vegetables are softened, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and add half of chicken stock.
• Whisk remaining chicken stock, eggs, and 3 tablespoons parsley in a medium bowl until homogeneous. Stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, slowly pour egg mixture into sausage mixture. Add bread cubes and fold gently until evenly mixed.
• Use part of stuffing to stuff turkey, if desired (see note). To cook remaining stuffing, transfer to a buttered 9- by 13-inch rectangular baking dish (or 10- by 14-inch oval dish), cover tightly with aluminum foil, and bake until an instant-read thermometer reads 150°F (66°C) when inserted into center of dish, about 45 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking until golden brown and crisp on top, 15 to 20 minutes longer. Remove from oven, let cool for 5 minutes, sprinkle with remaining parsley, and serve.

Pour onion mixture into a large bowl and stir in remaining bread cubes, sausage, poultry seasoning, and pepper. Watch your hands, it's hot. Mix well. This stuffing is ready for baking.

DEE'S SAUSAGE STUFFING

Steps:

• Chop onion and celery into a medium dice.
• In large frying pan, melt one stick of butter and saute vegetables. Season generously with Garlic Salt, Salt, Pepper, and Italian Seasoning. (It WILL be salty, but remember -- this mixture will flavor the dry bread cubes later). When done, empty into large mixing bowl.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Using the same pan, brown pork sausage. Be sure to break into chunks as it's cooking. Drain off grease, and empty into large mixing bowl.
• Add 2-3 bread cubes into the mixing bowl and stir. Set aside for now to allow the cubes to absorb the juice and flavor of the vegetables and sausage.
• Use the same pan again, melt the other stick of butter and heat through with two boxes of chicken broth (you may not need the 3rd).
• Pour amounts of the heated butter/chicken broth mixture over the cubes, et al in the mixing bowl. Stir to mix. DON'T pour it all at once! It's not an exact science, and you'll want it moist enough that it WILL NOT hold a firm form of a meatball. It may appear TOO juicy, but it will cook out when baking. Be generous, or it will be too dry. We like it to come out crunchy on top, but moist below.
• Taste to make sure it's flavorful. Adjust seasoning, if needed.
• REMEMBER to butter or PAM spray the foil pan.
• Load the stuffing mixture, and smooth on top.
• Cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or so. Remove foil and bake for additional 15-20 minutes, or until crispy and golden on top. Let it sit for a few minutes before serving.
