Oyster Stuffing for Turkey image

This dressing is a tradition with our family. Thanksgiving without oyster stuffing is not complete! There is just a hint of something extra, but the oyster taste is not overpowering, so even those who don't care for oysters like this stuffing. It's my "secret ingredient"!

Time 5h25m

Yield 12 cups

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 lb ground sausage (not links)
1 1/2 cups chopped onions
2 cups finely chopped celery
12 cups dried bread, cubes
2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon rubbed savory
1 teaspoon dried sage or 1 teaspoon ground sage
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves or 1 teaspoon ground thyme
4 ounces cans oysters, drained and finely chopped (freeze remainder for next time!)
1 can chicken broth
2 eggs, slightly beaten

Steps:

  • In large frying pan, saute sausage meat, stirring to break up, until lightly brown.
  • Lift out with slotted spoon into large bowl.
  • In drippings (add a little butter, if there's not enough), saute celery and onion until tender-- 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Add to sausage meat.
  • Add next seven ingredients; mix well.
  • Add broth and eggs.
  • Mix.
  • If the stuffing is not moist enough, add a little water, but be careful because you don't want it too wet.
  • The turkey will add moisture during the cooking process.
  • Use this recipe to stuff a 10- 12 lb turkey.
  • Spoon dressing into turkey cavities, but do not pack.

I'm not a big fan of oysters, but I thought I'd give this stuffing a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The oysters added a subtle briny flavor that I really enjoyed.

This stuffing was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more broth or butter next time.

This stuffing is a great way to use up leftover oysters. I had a dozen oysters leftover from a seafood boil and this was the perfect way to use them up. The stuffing was delicious and everyone at my table loved it.

Followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly! The stuffing was cooked through and the oysters were plump and juicy. My family loved it.

This oyster stuffing is the best I've ever had! It's so flavorful and moist, and the oysters add a touch of briny goodness that really takes it over the top. I will definitely be making this again for my next holiday dinner.
