Bacon & Oyster Stuffing image

Smoky bacon leads the way in this East Coast-inspired stuffing. If you really like oysters, add an extra can. Doubling the oysters will add about 17¢ per serving.-Sherry Thompson, Seneca, South Carolina

This stuffing is easy to make and always turns out perfectly. I love that I can make it ahead of time and just pop it in the oven on Thanksgiving morning.

I was hesitant to try this stuffing because I'm not a big fan of oysters, but I'm so glad I did! The oysters added a subtle brininess that really complemented the bacon and herbs.
