- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Crumble the sausage into the skillet and brown until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the sausage into a large bowl and drain half the grease. Lower the temperature under the skillet to medium. Melt the butter, then add the celery, rosemary, carrots and onions. Cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken stock, thyme, sage and turmeric and bring to a boil.

SAUSAGE-AND-CORNBREAD DRESSING
I'm posting this recipe at my son, James', request. He said that he could eat this three times a day! I think the original recipe was from " Southern Living" magazine, many years ago, but I've modified it to suit our tastes.. This recipe can be made a day in advance, refrigerated until it's time to be heated ( allow for additional cooking time ), and doubles well.This has been a staple at our Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners for many years years.
