Stuffing or Dressing?
#1
[COLOR="Navy"]With Thanksgiving coming up I thought I throw out another food related poll to ponder when your not studying for your exams.

Now I realize that traditionally "stuffing" is literally stuffed inside of the turkey when cooking and "dressing" is prepared in a pot/pan yet "stove top stuffing" is also prepared in a pot/pan.

The question....what do you call the "bread based" side dish - stuffing or dressing?[/COLOR]

Since I'm Pennsylvania Dutch, it's called filling. We ALWAYS have potato filling for the holidays but some people have bread filling or both.

We're Hoosiers- my mother-in-law makes an oyster DRESSING that is so good my brother-in-law and I had a duel (with forks-not guns!) over the last helping.

I'm gonna try something new this year. After I season the young turkey, I'm going to wrap it completely with Maple flavored bacon. Trying to get the best artery clogging flavor and taste out of my turkey. It should come out nice and moist and juicy. Still debating on whether to cook it in the oven or smoke it in the grill. Maybe I'll just cook two.

I call the bread thing stuffing.

People call stuffing "dressing?" Are you serious?! Next thing you know, people will be calling sauce "gravy."

Stuffing and dressing are two entirely different things. Stuffing is for Northerners, and is made with cubed bread, and, since I'm born and raised in the South, I don't know what all else. Dressing, on the other hand, is made with cornbread, the drippings from the turkey + more broth if needed, and all sorts of delicious seasonings, none of which are sweet (unless you count the pinch of sugar we Southerners put in everything). I sure wish the commercials would just quit it with the whole stuffing thing. This is the South. If you're going to try to sell something here, do it right; call it dressing... and you better make good and sure that's actually what your selling! Anything that looks like hot, soggy croutons isn't dressing!

*Ahem* I apologize for my outburst of food-snobbery. This happens to be a rather major Thanksgiving-time pet-peeve of mine. :o

Yeah, yeah, I know. Get over it, and lighten up. I'm workin' on it.

I love my stuffing with cubed bread and also small chunks of granny smith apples. My MIL makes it with sausage, bread and cranberries, which is also good, but I really like the apples the best.
