SLOW-COOKER SAUSAGE STUFFING



Slow-Cooker Sausage Stuffing image

This hearty stuffing requires no use of a stove-top or oven-simply add cut-up stale French bread, a few vegetables and sweet Italian sausage to a slow cooker and let the machine do the rest. Only a small amount of chicken broth is necessary because the vegetables and sausage give off so much liquid (and flavor).

Time 12h20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces plus more for greasing the slow cooker
1 large crusty loaf of French bread or two baguettes (not sourdough), cut into 1-inch pieces and staled overnight (about 14 cups)
1 large onion, cut into 1/4-inch pieces (about 2 cups)
2 medium carrots, cut into 1/3-inch pieces (about 1 heaping cup)
2 stalks celery, cut into 1/3-inch pieces (about 1 cup)
1 1/2 teaspoons finely-minced fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 pound sweet Italian sausage, casings removed
2 tablespoons roughly-chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Lightly grease the bottom and sides of a 6-quart slow cooker with butter.
  • Toss the stale French bread, butter, onions, carrots, celery, thyme and 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper in the slow cooker. Pour the chicken broth over the bread mixture and toss to coat. Use your hands to tear teaspoon-size pieces of the Italian sausage and put them directly on top of the bread mixture. The sausage should cover most of the stuffing.
  • Cover the slow cooker and cook on low until the sausage is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, about 4 hours. Remove the lid and gently stir the sausage into the stuffing. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper. Transfer to a shallow serving dish and garnish with the chopped parsley. Serve hot.

Time 13h55m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 loaf white sandwich bread
½ pound sage-flavored bulk breakfast sausage
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup finely chopped onion
¾ cup diced celery
1 medium Golden Delicious apple, chopped
⅓ cup chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup chicken broth, or more as needed
⅓ cup unsweetened applesauce
1 large egg
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Tear bread into small pieces and spread out on a baking sheet. Let dry at room temperature for 8 hours or overnight.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove sausage to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Drain and discard grease from the skillet.
  • Melt butter in the same skillet over medium heat; stir in onion and celery. Cook and stir until very tender, about 10 minutes. Add sausage, apple, parsley, sage, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes, then remove from heat.
  • Put dried bread pieces into a large bowl. Pour sausage mixture over bread and mix.
  • Combine chicken broth, applesauce, and egg in a bowl. Pour over bread mixture and mix well. Add more broth, as needed, to moisten all the bread. Don't add too much now; more can always be added later if needed.
  • Spray the inside of a slow cooker with cooking spray. Pour stuffing mixture into the slow cooker; cover and cook on High for 1 hour. Reduce heat to Low and cook for 4 hours; stir the stuffing halfway through cooking, scraping the sides and adding more broth if it seems dry.
