Dressing or stuffing?

We always called it dressing because that's what my mom called it. It's all her fault. :playful:

I have been craving canned smoked oysters lately and since my husband won't eat them I have to eat the whole can myself. I do share them with our 3 dogs and 6 or 7 outdoor cats though.

Now I'm contemplating putting a can of the smoked little tiny oysters in my turkey dressing. I wonder how that would be. Easier than googling a oyster dressing/stuffing recipe I bet.

If you try it Linda, please tell us how it is. I've never had smoked oysters, only the smoked mussels.
 
Both - sausage dressing in the front breast cavity and stuffing in the main cavity.
Some do the sausage dressing separately in a pan.

I love smoked oysters (with a nice cold beer) and can easily eat a can of them. (Those flat cans are small!!) I'm not sure how they would work in oyster stuffing, though... kind of a strong taste to them.
 
Called it stuffing when we were kids. Call it both now. Mom made the best stuffing. I also love my late mother-
in-law's Scottish oatmeal dressing. It's a simple recipe, but I haven't been able to get the ratio right .. it's just
oatmeal, butter and onion. Mine always turns out too wet. She stuffed the turkey with it, and made extra.
 
Stuffing here. But whatever we call it, it's always everyone's favorite part of the dinner. Except for the drumsticks, of course. I am considering buying extra legs, so I can have more.
 
Speaking of "stuffing", has anyone had a Turducken? That's a chicken stuffed into a duck which is then stuffed into a turkey. The one I ate also had sausage stuffed into the chicken, because apparently it wasn't stuffed "enough"....

I didn't buy the thing, but I understand it cost a obscene amount of money. It was good, but not THAT good.

One year, we decided to have an Olde English Christmas and of course, that involved a goose. Never did that again. The goose cost a fortune and produced what seemed like several gallons of goose geese and very little meat. Back to just plain old turkey after that.
