Sausage Turkey Recipe Cooking Directions
Stuffing:
Cook sausage and bacon in skillet, stirring until sausage crumbles; drain (reserve 2 tbsp/30 mL of the drippings) and place in a large bowl. Cook onion, celery, and apple in drippings over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until tender (about 5 minutes); remove from heat. Add to meat mixture along with bread cubes, water, soup base and Poultry Seasoning; mix well. Set aside while preparing turkey.
Turkey Cooking Instructions:
- Remove giblets and neck from turkey; discard or reserve for another use.
- Rinse turkey thoroughly with cold water; pat dry.
- Place turkey breast side up in roasting pan; rub inside and out with Poultry Seasoning.
- Stuff loosely with Sausage-Apple Stuffing (place any remaining stuffing in a casserole to bake later).
- Bake turkey, uncovered, at 325°F/165ºC for 4 to 4-1/2 hours, basting occasionally with pan juices. Meat thermometer should read 185°F/85ºC.
- Cover loosely with foil if turkey begins to get too brown. Remove from oven and let stand 15 minutes before carving.
- Place casserole with remaining stuffing in the oven the last hour before serving. Toss stuffing from turkey with that in casserole.
Makes 12 servings.
Note from Kitchen: To make stuffing entirely in casserole dish, add a little more water if a moist stuffing is desired.
