Ingredients

12 ounce box corn bread stuffing, I used Mrs. Cubbison's
1 cup butter, 2 sticks
1 cup onions, diced small
1 ½ cup celery, chopped small
1 large egg
14.5 ounce can chicken broth
(2) 12 ounce rolls of classic pork sausage

Instructions

Preheat over to 350° and spray a 9 x 13 casserole dish with a non stick spray. Set aside.
In a large frying pan, crumble sausage with a spoon and cook over medium flame until browned. Drain grease, set aside.
In a large sauce pan over low/medium flame, melt butter and then add chopped vegetables. Cook until translucent.
While vegetables are cooking, add chicken broth and the egg to a 2 cup measuring cup. Whisk until well incorporated and then whisk again right before adding broth into the corn bread mixture.
Once the veggies are translucent, add the stuffing mix and sausage to the sauce pan, stir, then pour the chicken broth and egg mixture into the stuffing mixture Stir until well combined.
Spoon stuffing mixture into the casserole dish and cover with foil.
Bake for approximately 40 minutes, removing the foil the last 10-15 minutes for a crispy top.
Top with gravy and enjoy!

Notes

Cook the sausage until browned and no further. Overcooking it will make it rubbery.

Use all the butter to cook the vegetables. They'll infuse the butter with their flavor, adding more flavor to the dish overall.

Whisk your eggs before adding them to the stuffing mixture to ensure the incorporate fully.
