![](_themes/citrus/citbul1a.gif) | TURKEY, CORNBREAD DRESSING AND GRAVY
12 lb. turkey
10 c. stale cornbread
3 c. toast, stale bread or
biscuits
1 green pepper
2 c. diced celery
2 bunches green onions
1 large onion, chopped
2 hard-boiled eggs
Wash bird and salt on the insides and grease the outside
with Crisco. Place on rack in roasting pan with breast side
up. Wrap baking pan and bird in heavy foil sealing all sides.
Bake in oven at 325 degrees according to the chart.
For 8 to 11 pounds bake 3 hours.
For 11 to 14 pounds bake 3 1/2 hours.
For 14 to 18 pounds bake 4 hours.
Drain off liquid in roaster pan and reserve for gravy.
Stuff bird with prepared dressing. Return to pot; place extra
dressing around the bird and cook about 25 minutes to brown.
Crumble toast and cornbread into a large pan. Set aside. Boil
the liver, gizzard and turkey neck slowly in 2 quarts of water
until tender. Strip the neck meat and chop with the gizzard
and add the bread crumbs. Save liver for gravy. Use broth of
boiled meat and add bread crumbs (about 3 1/2 cups), add plain
water if more juice is needed. Salt and pepper to taste. Cook
chopped celery, pepper and onions in 4 tablespoons oleo until
tender. Take out 1/3 cup of this mixture and set aside for the
gravy. Stir the rest into cornbread mixture and mix well.
Stuff the cooking turkey with dressing and return to oven
uncovered to brown about 25 minutes. If the craw space is
filled with foil before the bird is cooked it will be full and
the foil can be removed and the cavity can be filled with more
dressing without the skin breaking.
Turkey Gravy: Brown 3 tablespoons flour in 2 table-
spoons of oleo or fat drippings from turkey broth, add broth
drained from roasting pan when you remove the bird to stuff (2
1/2 cups). Mash egg yolks and liver to a smooth paste in about
1/4 cup of broth or water. Mash egg whites with fork. Put the
cooked celery, onion and pepper you saved from the dressing
into the gravy mix and cook about 10 minutes over slow fire,
stir in egg whites, yolk and liver mixture. Salt and pepper to
taste. Some people like to add 1 tablespoon white wine just
before removing from fire. If gravy seems too thin add about 2
tablespoons of dressing to it and stir well.

Put boneless roast (sirloin or other) in roaster. Half
cover with water; salt and pepper. Roast at 350 degrees until done.
Remove roast from broth, wrap in aluminum foil and cool in
refrigerator around 24 hours. Drain broth into Tupperware and

any, and make gravy. Slice beef very thin. You may add a can
of sliced mushrooms to gravy, if desired. Layer gravy and beef
in crock-pot. (Be sure to have crock-pot preheated as hot
gravy may crack cold crock-pot.) Heat until beef is hot. This
will keep for hours, if turned on low.
