Recipe - Jim Campbell Bread And Sausage Stuffing

1 Loaf; (2 pound size) Jim
Campbell Sauvina Bread
2 qt Chicken broth
2 pound Bulk whole hog sausage
1 bn Celery; minced , (about 2
cups)
2 md Onions; chopped
One half pound Butter
1 tablespoon Rubbed sage
1 tablespoon Ground savory
1 teaspoon Salt; (more may be added to
taste after the stuffing is
mixed)
2 tablespoon Minced garlic

Cut the bread into One fourth inch croutons. Place on cookie sheets or shallow
baking pans and dry well in a 200 degree oven stirring occasionally. This
can be done the day before.

Pour chicken broth into a large saucepan or a stock pot. Add celery,
onions, butter, sage, savory, and salt. Simmer until the celery and onions
are tender.

Crumble the sausage into a large skillet and fry until most of the fat is
rendered out but the sausage is still juicy. Drain off the fat.

Put the croutons in a very large mixing bowl (I use a dishpan) and stir in
the sausage. Remove the broth/vegetable mixture from the heat and add the
garlic. Pour over the croutons and mix well. Allow to stand for 10 minutes
and mix well again. The dressing should be moist enough to form into a ball
without crumbling. If not, add a little hot water.

Stuff the turkey and put the extra stuffing into a greased casserole. Cook
the turkey. Put the casserole in the oven with the turkey for the last 30
minutes.

Note: mushrooms may be added if desired.
