Time 6h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
5 carrots, diced
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 leftover turkey carcass with some meat attached
8 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon ground thyme
1 teaspoon dried sage
1 bay leaf
3 cups leftover prepared stuffing
⅓ cup fine bread crumbs
4 cups vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Heat a slow cooker on High until hot. Stir in butter, followed by carrots, celery, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Stir the turkey carcass, chicken broth, thyme, sage, and bay leaf into the slow cooker. Reduce the heat to Low, cover, and cook until turkey meat is falling off the bones, about 6 hours.

  • Use a variety of cheeses: Different cheeses will give your stuffing balls a different flavor and texture. Try using a combination of cheddar, Parmesan, and mozzarella cheese.
  • Add some extras: To make your stuffing balls even more delicious, try adding some cooked bacon, sausage, or vegetables. You can also add some chopped nuts or dried fruits.
  • Form the stuffing balls: Use a spoon or a small ice cream scoop to form the stuffing balls. Make sure the balls are packed tightly so they don't fall apart when you cook them.
  • Cook the stuffing balls: You can cook the stuffing balls in a variety of ways. You can fry them, bake them, or air fry them. If you are frying the stuffing balls, make sure the oil is hot enough so that the balls brown evenly.

Conclusion:

Leftover stuffing balls are a delicious and versatile way to use up leftover stuffing. They can be served as an appetizer, a side dish, or a main course. With a little creativity, you can make stuffing balls that everyone will love.
