Southern Corn Bread Dressing

Notes

Got this one from Paula Deen. It's mostly as-is except for two very important changes.

Ingredients

• Corn bread, crumbled
• 7 slices of oven-dried white bread, crumbled
• 1 sleeve saltine crackers, crushed
• 2 celery ribs, chopped
• 1 large onion, chopped
• ½ stick butter
• 7C chicken stock
• 1t kosher salt
• Pepper to taste
• 1T poultry seasoning
• 5 eggs, beaten

Directions

1. Pre-heat oven to 350°.
2. Make the corn bread the night before. Let it sit in the pan in the oven overnight.
3. Put crumbled corn bread, crumbled bread slices, crushed saltines, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper into a mixing bowl. Mix.
4. Sauté celery and onion in butter until transparent. Pour into mixing bowl and mix.
5. Add beaten eggs to mixing bowl and mix well.
6. Add non-stick spray to a large baking sheet.
7. Add stock to mixing bowl, mix, and immediately pour into baking sheet. Put sheet into oven.
8. The original recipe says this takes 45 minutes but I find that it takes at least one hour, up to 1:45. Keep an eye on it.
