Mom's Thanksgiving Dressing
Report
This is my mother's recipe for dressing. It's been my all-time favorite since I was a kid. We love it baked in the oven (not stuffed in the bird) until golden and crunch on top and moist in the middle! So good!

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Combine all ingredients, except the broth, in a large bowl or pot, cover, and set overnight in the refrigerator, of for at least several hours.
- Transfer the mixture into your serving dish and pat down gently with your hands.
- Pour enough broth into the prepared dressing until it's just juicy to the touch. Shouldn't be swimming in it, but still juicy when pressed.
- Bake for 50 minutes. If starting to brown too much, cover with foil in the final 15 minutes of baking.
Notes
- Making the cornbread from scratch is great, but you can also use the boxed variety, too.
- Let the bread sliced sit out for 12 to 24 hours to dry out, or toast them (we toast them, just like mom does, and we love the toasty taste).
- Make broth by simmering the turkey giblets and neck in a pot of water for at 45 minutes to an hour. For deeper flavor, add roughly chopped carrots, celery and onion. Strain.
- After the turkey has finished roasting, remove the turkey and strain the liquid into a boil. Add this to the giblet broth.
- We usually roast the turkey, and let it sit and then carve it, which allows us to collect the delicious turkey juices, add to the broth and then bake the dressing.
