whats your Thanksgiving cornbread dressing recipe?

Question

My mother has one but I dont like hers. She uses to much sage and adds apples and raisins. Its not bad its just not my kind of dressing. I want a good one with out fruit and isn't greenish brown due to the amount of sage and preferably doesnt call for white bread. If any one has one please share.

Answer 1

Well, I am from the south.
1 large skillet of cornbread , crumbled
1 med chopped onion
1 can cream of chicken soup
cooked turkey wings chopped
turkey broth (enough to make it very moist)
salt and pepper to taste (dash of sage ) or not
dash of garlic powder
2 hard boiled eggs chopped
mix and bake 375 for 30 minutes

Answer 2

I usually boil a chicken in water seasoned with salt, pepper, and a couple bouillon cubes a couple days in advance to get the broth. After it's cooled, I can take off the fat. (use the chicken for chicken salad).
I bake a skillet of cornbread. Cool, crumble and let set to dry overnight. Chop onions, celery, and hard boiled eggs if desired. Saute the onions and celery in butter.
I mix the cornbread with the onions, celery, warm broth, a can of cream of chicken soup, garlic bits, salt and pepper and three beaten eggs. I like it pretty "sloppy" so it doesn't get dry in the oven. I do not like sage but if you like a little of it, add it. Bake at 400' till bubbly. My family likes oyster dressing so we add a pint or so of fresh oysters along with the juice. If we can't get fresh ones, canned ones will work.

Answer 3

I dont have it written down but I bake jiffy cornbread the day before 2 or3 boxes (change 1/3 cup of milk to 1/2)
1 bag of seasoned pepperage farms bread dressing mix.
onions
celery
stock
sage
cut up giblets and sometimes a boiled egg.
butter or margarine
sauté 1 cup of onions and 1 cup of celery (string it first)
add stock to (crumbled up)cornbread and bread mix.
add the rest and season to taste with salt and pepper.
bake at 325 until golden on top. use a 13 x9 pan or bigger if you want more. I never stuff the turkey anymore just serve it on the side with gravy

Answer 5

1 large yellow onion, diced
3 stalks celery, chopped
2 eggs, beaten
2 cubes butter or margarine
1 lb. Turkey Italian Sausage
2 boxes Mrs. Culbretson's cornbread stuffing mix
Chicken broth, or stock, heated (at least 1 cup or more)

Saute celery and onion in butter (all of it) until translucent. Add to dry cornbread mix. Saute sausage (casings removed) until crumbly and cooked thru. Add to mix. Add beaten eggs and mix. Add chicken broth or stock until moistened but not too damp. Season with fresh ground pepper. You may stuff your turkey at this point or put in baking dish. I cook mine in a slow cooker for several hours so that I can keep my oven open for other dishes. Yum!
