My Basic Southern Cornbread Dressing

1 12”skillet of cornbread

1/2 sleeve saltine crackers

8 tablespoons butter

2 cups chopped celery

1 large onion, chopped

6 cups chicken stock

1 teaspoon salt

Freshly ground black pepper

2 teaspoon sage

1 tablespoon poultry seasoning

5 eggs, beaten

Crumble the cornbread and crackers in a large bowl and mix together well.

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the celery and onion and cook until transparent, approximately 5 to 10 minutes. Pour the vegetable mixture over cornbread mixture. Add the stock, mix well, taste, and add salt, pepper to taste, sage, and poultry seasoning. Add beaten eggs and mix well. Pour mixture into a greased pan and bake until dressing is cooked through, about 45 to 60 minutes.
