  • About

This flavorful cornbread stuffing offers a nice nutty flavor accented by the addition of salty, smoky bacon. Cook the onions slowly so they develop a caramel flavor without overbrowning.

Ingredients

  • Thick-cut bacon, 8 slices
  • Large yellow onions, 2, coarsely chopped
  • Celery stalks,

Method

In a large frying pan over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp, about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to paper towels to drain and cool slightly. Place the bacon in a large bowl.

Drain off all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat from the pan and return to low heat. Ad
