Method

Brown sausage, add onions, celery and carrots. Continue cooking, adding butter and evaporated milk, then simmer on low until vegetables are tender, yet still firm. Remove from heat to let cool slightly. In a large bowl, add seasonings to cornbread, including sugar. Add cooked ingredients and stir with hands. When mixed, add eggs, all at once and continue stirring. Add 1 cup stock at a time, until desired consistency is reached. Stuff poultry, or place in a casserole and cook 1 hour.

 

Notes: This is my family-s all time favorite at Christmas and Thanksgiving.
