  • Extra Large Mixing Bowl
  • Small Mixing Bowl
  • Medium Skillet
  • Stirring Utensils

Ingredients

  • 8 cups Dried Sourdough Bread Cubes
  • 3 cups Chicken Broth
  • 1 large Red Onion diced
  • 3 Celery Stalks diced
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 4 tbsp Salted Butter ½ stick
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Sage roughly chopped
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Parsley minced
  • 1 tsp Fresh Rosemary
  • 1 tsp Fresh Thyme
  • 1 tsp Celery Seed
  • 1 tsp Coarse Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 tsp Salt

    1 large Red Onion, 3 Celery Stalks, 4 tbsp Salted Butter, 1 tbsp Fresh Sage, 1 tsp Fresh Rosemary, 1 tsp Fresh Thyme, 1 tsp Celery Seed, 1 tsp Coarse Ground Black Pepper, 1 tsp Salt
  • In a small mixing bowl, lightly beat the 2 eggs.
    2 large Eggs
  • Place the bread cubes in an extra large mixing bowl. Pour the lightly beaten eggs over the top, followed with the sauted mixture, finishing with the chicken broth.
    8 cups Dried Sourdough Bread Cubes, 3 cups Chicken Broth
  • Fold until the ingredients are fully combined and the bread pieces are nicely coated.
  • Pour into your casserole dish and spread even without smashing the ingredients flat. You want it to remain fluffy.
  • Sprinkle the freshly minced parsley evenly over the top.
    1 tbsp Fresh Parsley
  • Place in the smoker, uncovered, and let cook for 30 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat, serve, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Not using sourdough? Keep in mind some bread types are a little more porous so you may not need as much broth. Start by adding only half of the broth and add a bit more at a time until you get the right consistency.
  • Gently stir the stuffing mixture. You don’t want to beat up the bread pieces once they get wet. Be gentle with your folding and the result will be a gorgeous finish.
  • You can swap out the fresh herbs for dried. However, this will reduce the flavor as fresh herbs have a much stronger presence.
