Ingredients

For 4-6 servings

• 4 Cups Dry bread crumbs
• 2 Eggs
• 1 Cup Diced celery
• 1 Small Onion Chopped fine
• 1 Tsp Poultry Seasoning
• 1 Tsp Salt
• ¼ tsp Pepper
• 1 Stick Butter (½ cup)
• 1 Cup Chicken stock Hot

100 to 125 servings

• 12 Loaves Bread shredded (21 oz loaves)
• 24 Eggs
• 12 Cups Diced celery
• 4 Lbs Onions
• 14 Tsp Poultry seasoning
• 14 Tsp Salt
• 6 Tsp Pepper
• 14 Sticks Melted butter or margarine (7 cups)
• Chicken stock

Instructions

• Use enough stock to really moisten the bread mixture. When you think you have it moist enough, put in more stock. I really takes a great deal of moisture not to have a too dry dressing.
• If you don’t have a bowl large enough to mix the whole recipe, shred 6 loaves into one bowl and 6 in another. Divide the celery and onions and proceed to mix two batches and then combine them in a large electric roaster for the long slow cook.
• If you do not have an electric roaster, put it in pans and bake in the oven. Just be sure in advance that you have enough oven space.
