Secret Recipe Revealed - Stuffing
Stuffing is an absolutely personal preference. I hear of families getting into battles over "the right kind of stuffing." I don't know how this stuffing would hold up in another family's contest, but this recipe has been handed down through my wife's mother's side for years, and it is a big hit (although my brother picks out the raisins).
Old Fashioned Stuffing
10 cups bread cubed
1 lb. sausage
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup apples, sliced
1 cup raisins
1 Tbsp. Poultry Seasoning
2 tsp. salt
1 cup water (add a bit more as necessary while cooking)
Cook sausage, onions, and apples together. Do not drain off fat. Add bread and remaining ingredients. Stir well. Simmer for 1 hour, stirring occasionally or put in casserole and bake at 325 for one hour, covered. You may need to add a bit of water--this is supposed to be a moist stuffing--not dry.

Hmm.... sounds like a great receipe. I like the idea of the apples, but would have to agree with your brother the raisins are out. I wonder if adding chicken broth instead of water, might even add more flavor.
Chris, sounds great raisins and all
I bet the flavor of the sausage runs right threw it.
Thanks for sharing
Enjoy the day
Sounds really tasty, I am a big fan of well prepared stuffing!
Chris, this recipe looks much like mine, only I have not added apples. I will need to try again with apples soon.
This looks good to me. Thanks for sharing your family recipe.

Everything but the raisins. Sounds like a delicious treat all by itself. Hmmm.
