The Ultimate Sausage Stuffing Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 pound breakfast sausage
• 0.75 cup melted margarine, or as needed
• 1.5 cups chopped celery
• 0.75 cup finely diced onion
• 8 cups soft bread cubes, divided
• 1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
• 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

1. Prepare all the necessary ingredients.
2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the sausage, breaking it apart until browned, approximately 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
3. Measure the pan drippings, adding melted butter to reach 1 cup. Return the mixture to the skillet and heat over medium heat.
4. Add the celery and onion to the skillet and sauté until the onion is tender and translucent, about 10 minutes.
5. Incorporate 1/3 of the bread cubes, stirring to moisten them with the butter and vegetable mixture.
6. Transfer the bread and onion mix to a large bowl. Add the sausage, remaining bread cubes, poultry seasoning, and pepper. Mix thoroughly but gently, being mindful of the heat.
7. Bake as preferred or use to stuff your Thanksgiving turkey.
