I have been making this dressing, minus the sausage, for over 30 years. This year I tried it with Jimmy Dean® pork sausage. The whole family just loved it. The sausage just took this dressing to another level of deliciousness. This will now be our family's traditional dressing.

Yield:
1 2-quart casserole

Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) package Jimmy Dean® Premium Pork Regular Sausage

  • ½ cup salted butter

  • 2 cups diced onion

  • 2 cups diced celery

  • 1 (8 ounce) package sliced mushrooms

  • 1 teaspoon dried sage

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 3 cups crumbled sweet cornbread

  • 3 slices day-old bread, cut into 1-inch cubes

  • 1 cup chicken broth

Directions

  1. Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.

  2. Add sausage to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir with a spatula, breaking apart the sausage until cooked, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  3. Melt butter in the same skillet. Cook onion and celery, stirring constantly, until onion is soft and translucent, 8 to 10 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more. Season with sage, salt, and pepper. Stir in sausage, cornbread, bread cubes, and chicken broth.

  4. Transfer stuffing to a 2-quart baking dish.

  5. Broil in the preheated oven until the top is toasted and starts to brown, 2 to 4 minutes.
