POCKET DRESSING
In a lot of states, people don't just eat food on Thanksgiving; they hunt for it. Lora Smith, a writer and farmer with roots in Kentucky, sends along a recipe handed down from her great-grandmother, for her family's "pocket" dressing: a baked patty of dressing that slides easily into the pockets and knapsacks of rabbit and quail hunters. The Smiths also have the patties at the table, where they are passed around on a platter. Texture is key. The outside must be browned and crisp. Inside, softness comes from cornbread and biscuits, and chewiness from foraged mushrooms. A family member (traditionally, the oldest matriarch) leaves a thumbprint indentation on each patty before baking, so that a little gravy can settle and soak in. The hunt continued through Thanksgiving weekend. "They'd again take the leftover dressing wrapped in wax paper with them, and sometimes turkey sandwiches or turkey with fresh biscuits pulled out of the oven that morning," Ms. Smith said. "My father always carried a small backpack where he kept extra leftovers and cold bottles of Coke. His other job was to carry the rabbits and quail they shot in the backpack." When the weather was especially chilly, the patties solved another problem. According to Ms. Smith, "they also served as nice hand warmers."

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly oil 2 12-cup muffin tins. Finely crumble biscuits and cornbread into a large bowl with your hands; set aside.
- Melt 8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, about 5 minutes. Add celery and cook 4 more minutes. Stir in sage and chestnuts and season with salt and pepper to taste; transfer to the bowl with biscuit and cornbread crumbs.
- Melt remaining 4 tablespoons butter in skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until they have released most of their liquid and are beginning to brown, about 8 minutes; remove to the bowl with onion mixture and crumbs.
- Add eggs and 2 cups turkey broth to bowl and stir until everything is well-combined and moist. The mixture should hold together when squeezed in your hand. Add up to 1/2 cup more broth if mixture is too dry.
- Form mixture into 3-inch balls with your hands. Flatten balls slightly between your palms, then set them in prepared muffin tins. Use your thumb or fingers to form a dimple in the top of each. Fill dimples with turkey broth. Transfer to oven and bake until the tops are browned and starting to crisp, about 40 minutes. Serve alongside turkey, drizzled with gravy if you like, or wrap the patties individually if serving as a portable snack.

POULTRY DRESSING
I have had this recipe for many years. It was a grand prize winner in a competition in Canadian Living magazine in the side dish category. It's delicious. I freeze it in shortening boxes, lined with wax paper. Then I can just take out one and slice it when I need it as a good accompaniment to chicken or pork chops.

If you love cherries, this dressing is really yummy! I use Sleeping Bear Farms cherry concentrate (found in the cooler by the fresh OJ at my grocery store)....it is so good. I usually have to triple this recipe for our family of 6, especially if salad is our main dish.

HOMEMADE DRESSING
This dressing recipe has been passed on from generation to generation. Our Thanksgiving would not be complete without this dressing! Throughout the years, we have added mushrooms. But when kids came into the picture again, we had to take them out. This dressing is so good that we would make 2 pans of it, one with onions and one without for the relatives that couldn't tolerate onions any longer (usually the older generation). Regardless, we always have this dressing!

Steps:
- Saute the onion and celery in the butter until tender. Add mushrooms if you would like!
- Combine all ingredients in a large bowl; mix well. I use a healthy sprinkling of poultry seasoning -- that is what makes it smell soooo good while cooking!
- Place into a 13x9x2 inch baking dish.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.
- If dressing begins to look too dry, add more chicken stock. (While waiting on the turkey to finish, you might leave the dressing in the oven -- in this case, add more chicken stock!).
