I never have made stuffing with 2 eggs. What's the purpose of the eggs?

I have never made cornbread stuffing without it. It binds it together and makes it rise. Make a pan of cornbread without eggs and see what happens. I don't use all-purpose flour either. The self-rising flour along with the eggs, makes a tasty high pan of cornbread.

The best brine for a turkey is,
tenderquick
sugar cure
liquid smoke
water to cover turkey.
Soak turkey in brine in the fridge as it defrosts, 3-4 days.
This is the best brine. The turkey will be slightly salty with a smoked flavor. If you want exact recipe amounts freepmail me. I don't have them right now as I am at work.

Ok, I'm jumping at the chance - please put me on your ping list.

Honestly, I find myself reaching for your Clinton Legacy Cookbook far more than any other in my collection. It's truly a fabulous assortment of great recipes sprinkled with just the "right" amount of humor. I made Seafood Gumbo a couple of weekends ago and I'm still getting compliments. Someone wanted a copy of "my" recipe. I was wondering, rather than transcribing it, is there a thread or source anywhere with the recipes that will facilitate a simply copy and paste? Thanks.

And thanks for this thread!

Thanks. Sounds good.

Do your baked sweet potato fries come out crunchy, or at least crisp? When I coat mine with oil, they come out soggy. Any suggestions?

Any of y'all ever use that butter marinade injector? It is delicious. You can press down on a slice of turkey on your plate and the juices run out. So moist and tender. Delicious!!!!

I use Tony Chachere's injectables.

what's the trick?

Throw in some stew meat when browning the bones and deglaze pan with dry marsala. Then make the stock.

Did this last week and loved the result.

yeah, that's happend to me. You have to cook them longer than you think. Use as little oil as you can and depending on your oven, you could raise temp to 450.

Experiment!

ALWAYS purchase a turkey twice as big as you are going to need for the Thanksgiving meal. That way, there's plenty of left overs. :)
