TELBAN'S FAMILY CRACKER STUFFING

Provided by Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 sleeves saltine crackers
2 stalks celery
1 cup butter
1 medium onion
4 eggs
1/2 cup milk

Steps:

  • With crackers still in their sleeves, crush up with your hands (easier to crush this way, and it keeps your hands cleaner). Place crushed crackers in large bowl.
  • In a frying pan, saute the butter and onion until the onion are tender, about 5 minutes. Chop celery into small pieces and add to the crackers. Add cooked onions and butter to the crackers; mix well.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well. Add milk a little at a time (you might not use all of the milk), until the cracker mix is moistened.
  • Cracker mix should form a ball which you can hold in your hand. Use to stuff a 12-pound turkey. When stuffing a turkey this does not expand, so you want to pack it in tight. When the turkey is ready, you pull out the stuffing in one big chunk and slice it. Great on a turkey sandwich the next day!

CRACKER STUFFING



Cracker Stuffing image

This is a recipe from my grandmother. It was passed down to me by my mom. Not sure but I think my grandmother got it from her mom too. In any case, I love this. Leftovers can be sliced up and put on turkey/chicken sandwiches. Yum! Also, use this and make the stuffing into balls about the size of meat balls and cook them with gravy and cut up leftover turkey/chicken. Again, I love this stuff!
