Ingredients

14 cup butter
13 cup onion, minced
2 tablespoons celery
9 cups day-old bread, broken into 1-inch pieces
1 medium apple, chopped with skin
14 cup parsley
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
34 teaspoon salt
18 teaspoon pepper
1 12 cups water (add a little at a time)

Directions

1

Fry onion and celery in butter in the pan that you are going to be baking your turkey in, until the onion turns clear.
2

Add all the other ingredients except the water, and mix well.
3

I find that if I use day old bread and NOT dry bread, that I need to add very little or no water at all.
4

You want the mixture to hold together loosely when you gently form a ball with it.
5

Too much water and I find it is too mushy.
6

Pack quite tightly into the cavity of your bird.

If we have any leftover stuffing that doesn't fit in the bird, I will cook it in a seperate dish with the gizzards and heart on top for flavour, covered.
