Cornbread and sausage stuffing is full of color and flavor. For a stuffing with a bit of heat, use hot Italian sausage or even chorizo.

3 to 4 tablespoons rendered bacon fat or butter, if needed
2 cups chopped onion
1 1/2 cups finely chopped celery, including leaves
1 1/2 cups finely chopped bell pepper, preferably a mix of red and green
2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme or 1 tsp. Dried
Pinch dried chile flakes (optional)

DIRECTIONS
In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until browned. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Add enough rendered bacon fat or butter to the pan to get about 5 Tbs. total fat. Add the onion, celery, peppers, garlic, thyme, chile flakes, and salt. Cook briefly until the onion is softened. With a wooden spoon, scrape up any browned bits in the pan. Combine in a large bowl with the crumbled cornbread, scallions, parsley, chives, and pepper. Toss to combine. Bake in the bird or in a casserole.

Stuff the bird -- or, if baking some or all of the stuffing in a casserole, pour a cup or two of stock over the stuffing to replace the juices the stuffing would have absorbed from the bird. Bake it covered until heated through, 45 min. to 1 hour. For a crunchy top, uncover it for the last 15 min. of baking.

Serving size = 1 cup
