I do have a suggestion my mom taught me. I don't add raw eggs till the end so I can taste throughout to make sure seasoning is right without eating the raw eggs.
The way I make it. The way my mother and grandmother made dressing.
Great idea!! ❤
I love the interaction between you and your husband. He is so supportive of what you are doing and adds to the enjoyment of the show. You make dressing the way that my grandmother from Louisiana made it. Thanks!
I laughed when Chris said maybe the dressing made across the street would be different. I myself have never seen any wet dressing like this and I'll be 72 next week. However, I'm really intrigued and want to try a smaller version of it. We love celery, in bigger chunks, and I almost always make a mirepoix of the chopped onion, celery and either carrots or water chestnuts. So, dressing/stuffing...whatever one calls it...let's just celebrate the differences and try them all. Have a great time traveling and being with family.
Soupy dressing is always the best because it's so moist and fluffy.
🙏
@@dorothybeck7559 yes indeed!
Dorothy Beck is absolutely right! Lol.
Just want to give a huge shout out to all of the Mommas,Daddies & Grandparents who shared their recipes with us so that they can be shared for generations to come😊😍I made a cook book for both of my kids so that they will have mine and can add their own and keep passing them on. Thank you for sharing & Happy Holidays everyone!
Yes!!!
Yesssss 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼♥️♥️♥️♥️
AMEN 🙏
Happy thanksgiving to you all too.
@@debbiealtman4572 thank you .. and you also
I am making this dressing just for myself this Thanksgiving. No reason for it not to turn out, thanks for sharing Tammy. God bless
Emile Henry is French. Chris is saying it correctly. Instead of dismissing him be grateful he's telling you the right thing. Everyone needs a Chris!
The milk makes sense to me. My mom made a cream soup to put in it which, between the milk, the cream of chicken soup & broth you're using, really turns out to be the same thing.

A pastry blender makes perfectly sliced boiled eggs, and makes short work of chopped eggs for potato salad and dressing.
I make my dressing a day or two ahead of time, too. Then I pop it in my greased slow cooker to cook it - just remember to stir it every so often as many crockpots have hot spots. Of course when I serve it, it probably doesn't look as pretty if it hadn't been stirred BUT it's a win-win as you free up oven space, smells so good, and it is just as yummy. Many blessings to you and yours!
I use to work in a school cafeteria. If we didn't have quite enough broth, we'd put in a little buttermilk. I'll tell you, it was delicious!!!
Tammy is one of the greatest cooks. She cooks exactly like my mom, grandmother, and aunts. I would give almost anything to get Tammy's cooking. I bet it would take me back to my childhood. 👍👍
I don't know if my comment added at end of live chat. I said, enjoy your new freezer, it's nice. I watched you make those two gorgeous cakes. I was so glad the cake didn't burn! I was one of them hollering at the camera, "the cake, the cake"! Sorry, about those sweet potatoes, it happens to all of us...hey, it's real cooking. Enjoy your time with family.
I use cream, not milk, and cream of celery soup, instead of cream of chicken soup. I also use homemade “heavy bone broth” and all the fat drippings too. I saute my onion and celery too
Looks good! My Mama always put boiled eggs in her dressing & so do I. She never put chicken or cream of chicken soup in her's but one day I might make it that way to see how it is. My Mama's cornbread dressing was always so delicious. Happy Thanksgiving y'all 🧡🤎💛
Oh Tammy & Chris, thanks for sharing your recipes! I love all the little tips you give us🇺🇸, just wanted to tell you I'm Georgia 🍑born n raised now living in Northeast Texas, and my first time actually making cornbread dressing, I had to call mama & GET her instructions over long distance ...I had always helped her wile growing up but just needed to make sure l did not forget to put anything in my first dressing! ❤it was great and l like mine wet, too, cause that's how mama made hers! She lived to be 90! I pray yall have safe travels and a very Happy Holidays! I know my wish is late, cause l just found you in January! But l can't get enough of yall! I 💘 everything you cook & really appreciate all your tips & tricks since mama has gone to her heavenly reward already living in paradise with Jesus Christ! 💘love 💘❤💕♥ yall!
What are the holidays without you two and your videos??🥰You and your cooking have just become a part of our home now! Wouldn’t be the same without ya!! Thank you for just always being there !!!🥰♥️‼️☮️🐞
I got out some chicken breasts and thighs to thaw for a pan of chicken and dressing. I have a piece of cornbread, some dinner rolls left over so that is the base of my dressing. If I need to I will make some cornbread batter and add to it as I short cut the cornbread that way.
This is the VERY, VERY BEST dressing instructions ANYWHERE on the internet!!! U don't know how much I appreciated this. My mother passed away in 2010. I always helped cooking a huge feast on Thanksgiving. She taught me EXACTLY how u are by explaining & demonstrating even down to how to pat the mix to make sure it's moist enough, & watching the cracks to make sure it's done. All those things are crucial to know. This is why I can make my mother's wonderful dressing but I think it's great u are doing it like this so that others who weren't so lucky to learn from family can make it themselves. Tk u for bringing back those wonderful memories with my mom, I miss her so much! She was the BEST southern cook I've ever known.
Happy Thanksgiving Tammy & Chris and family!! God bless you abundance of testimonies of God's Goodness and Faithfulness and Love for you all! So much appreciate you and the Bible Studies and the Cooking Lessons too. Keep on keeping on! it encourages us brothers and sisters in the Lord!
Tami, ever since I saw you using the chopper that you pull the string like a lawn mower, I haven't chopped anything by hand. Man do I love that little gadget!
Thank y'all so much for the wonderful and beautiful cooking classes. Prayers are with y'all 🙏 for safe and wonderful trip. Frank & Christine Pfeifer
my grandmom had a rada knife and she used it and sharpened it till there was almost nothing left, and still used it. i didnt know where to find them or what kind it was, i saw your video and followed your link and ordered a paring knife.. I LOVE IT.. im so happy that i found them thank you.. i went back and ordered 5 more for gifts. now i dropped a hint that i want a rada for christmas.. i hope the kids heard me 😂
They are great!
Mama used to put the chopped up chicken in her dressing. I made it that way last Thanksgiving and my husband said it was the best he had ever had.
This is TRUE southern dressing. The one modern day add on is the can of Cream of Chicken but I do the same. SO GOOD....
I dont know if you guys watch Hometown on HGTV.. Laurel Ms...... If you ever want to visit I have a Abnb here and would love to invite you to stay for free and see the town. I would also enjoy meeting you guys. I really do enjoy watching.
Ya'll have a safe trip and a wonderful time wit family and friends! Love ya'll. Pam in South Carolina 😊
Have you ever had oyster dressing? My mom makes it every year and we as a family almost fight over it. I wish you could taste hers it is awesome.
I have not
It's a great cooking video, I'm also a chef and love making cooking videos, you did a great job!😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋
T&C...that dressing is looking yummy. I want you to have fun on your trip. Thanks for all your cooking and caring/sharing.
Food brings families together Happy Holiday a coming.

Hi Tammy and Chris. Tammy love your apron. You have the cutest aprons. What a wonderful video. I love how you explain everything. Good thing I wasn’t there half the cornbread would be missing and in my stomach!!! he he he
That’s my favorite thing to eat at Thanksgiving is dressing with giblet gravy. I live in North Carolina and I’m having trouble finding giblets. I hope I can find them before Thanksgiving. Have a blessed Thanksgiving Tammy and Chris and enjoy the time with your family!
Oh my!! I sure want to try this!! Tammy and Chris I could watch you guys cook all day!! You are the best!!
I frown on a lot of celery, so I omit the fresh celery and add a can of cream of celery soup instead. Makes it delicious without celery pieces in your mouth.
Hey y'all! Thank you for your videos! Cute apron Tammy! Hasn't had breakfast yet and you're making me hungry!
I'm a Georgia born girl and cook too and I so enjoy watching you cook like I do. I too also make my cornbread dressing ahead of time and freeze it, I also make a BIG enough batch that I have enough for Thanksgiving, Christmas and a bag for just when my family is in the mood for it for a Sunday lunch. Love you guys, have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. God bless and stay safe.
Side note: I too use only White Lily flour and corn meal, there is NO other brand for me.
Love the video and this is how I make the dressing. It's always so good and my grandson always request an extra pan to take home as his Christmas present. He has 2 little boys and they love it too. Love you Tammy and hope your Thanksgiving is great for you and Chris and family.
I always add eggs in my dressing, My Momma did, her Mom and my Mother- in law all did. And we made ours almost like you do.
I totally agree with you Tammy about not sauteing the onions and celery. I want those nice strong flavors and sage. This gave me an idea for Christmas because I don't want to do a turkey this time, just a really good chicken and dressing and this is going to be our Christmas meal....I love having everything in one pot...lol.... Merry Christmas to you and your family and everyone....🎄😋❤️💝🤗
Just by watching this video, I notice that I make my dressing the same way. But when I make pork chops and dressing I always put bulk mild sausage and a can of cream of mushroom in the mix instead of boiled chicken and a can of cream of chicken. I use the stand mixer to mix it all. Taste pretty good together. Thanks for sharing this recipe. It's the best one out there.
I find during cooking time for the dressing it gets dry. I just use chicken bullion and water to help keep it moist.
Raw eggs are also the binder, with out you’ll have grumbling wet cornbread
Love you Tammy, but in all my years I’ve never heard of boiled eggs in dressing, I do like bell pepper and onions in my dressing but the eggs I think I’ll pass on that one. Happy Thanksgiving!
Really should try it, it's great, but then that's the only way I've ever had it! 50+ years! I've never had bell pepper in mine, probably going to try that, I love bell peppers, do you saute them before adding?
I have always had eggs in mine and only way I’ve ever eaten dressing!
I always fried my onions and celery with poultry seasoning. Idk,it works 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I love dressing. I never used boiled eggs, but I'll eat it just the same.
We enjoyed watching today. Still waiting to see y'all drink the grease......Just kidding Tammy, Chris said that the other day and I about fell out my chair....Sharon said Thanks for the cooking tips & Happy Holidays to all..
Thank you Tammy for taking the time to share all these recipes with us having videos two and three hours that is so sweet of you to think of us in this holidays and able to share your recipes and I’m going to try your dressing recipe I enjoy so much watching your cooking videos and of course Chris helping along with you Tammy you and Chris are so kind hearted and giving have a blessed Thanksgiving love you guys👍❤️❤️🙏Drive safely
Hope you guys have had a wonderful weekend!! I am sure everyone enjoyed all the amazing food you had prepared.
🦃 I have made Tammy’s recipe several times. Tammy’s recipe works and is tasty. I used a good quality light bread in mine. Light and fluffy dressing, very. Very good. A+ recipe.
Great tips here, you don’t want a dark crusty cornbread recipe. Tammys tips is to make a light colored cornbread without a hard crusty layer. LOVE THIS RECIPE !🦃 😋
Thank you!
People say it's strange that I put several eggs in my sausage (bread) stuffing,my mom ALWAYS DID IT THAT WAY,SO DO I&ITS THE ABSOLUTE BEST
What is so special about White Lily Flour? I am 75 and have never used it but seen it in the grocery stores. I have used King Arthur Flour and other flours but never that one, no reason why, just never did but I would like to learn about it. I am still cooking the old fashioned way, no take out, order in or prepared stuff, I still cook from scratch like my grandma did.
I've always put boiled eggs in my dressing. My Grandma put them in hers. 😊
I love the gravey over my dressing; but don't like the giblets in it, so I use cream of chicken soup, and add boil eggs, and cut up chicken pieces with black pepper, and chicken seasoning 😋
My mama used to make hamburger dressing it's good too instead of cornbread use bread dried cr ck soup onions
Ck broth
Hoping ya have one
Happy.cooing
Kathie says… My mom also made stuffing using hamburger in it. Whenever I make it everybody loves it! I always wondered if other people made this stuffing!! Happy Thanksgiving Kathy!!
Every Thanksgiving have this mom would cook the giblets from turkey and I'd love to get the juices from the neck
I live in the Midwest nmybson likes cornbread dressing and I like the other but we all have a nice time.Hapoy Thsnksgivinf to you and to whoever reads this note
God us good and loves us all xxxxxxxxx@@arthurburkhart3710
@@kathypage7504 Kathie says… HAPPY THANKSGIVING to you and yours Kathy!! Enjoy those Turkey necks!!🦃 Tomorrow I will boil Turkey necks and a Turkey wing for stock to add to the dressing, and for extra gravy, and then freeze it.
Thank You for the recipe ❣️❣️ Safe travels ,and enjoy your family ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🍽🍁
Thank you Tammy for putting boiled eggs in your dressing, my mother was from Alabama and she always put boiled eggs in her dressing. I had been looking for a recipe with boiled eggs, so far you are the only one I could fine doing this. Thanks for the memory and for reminding me that I can cook the way "My Mama Did".
I love the boiled eggs also. I saute the onions and celery in some butter before adding them.
If I don't put the boiled eggs in the dressing, I add them to the gravy.
I love my aunt’s sausage stuffing! Has tiny pieces of dried apricots and an apple. Sooo good. I make that and a traditional wetter one.
I have tasted dressing before that had apples in it, thought it was really good.
I agree with sautéing the onion and celery it carnalizes with makes it tastier i always do that and yes my Mom did use a wood stove in fact we didn't have electricity in our town where i was born till the 1970s but i do love to watch you cook southern foods and have learned a lot from you :-) Love your stand freezer i need to get me one. Enjoy your vacation.
I like seeing the door table in your sunroom, reminds me of all the cooking you did at the old house.
Hello from Lexington, North Carolina!❤ Tammy, I think I've watched this 3 times now, between Facebook and UA-cam😂 I love y'all so much!!❤❤ Loved Collard Valley Baptist Church this morning, Eddie was so sweet, loving his family there with him💞
Love watching you do this, I make my dressing very similar.
1. I just started adding cream of chicken soup to my dressing a couple of years ago, and it's a game changer, totally takes the flavor up a notch.
2. My dressing is hella wet! I'm so glad to see someone else does it this way. And I do that pat thing too, but I do it with my hand.
3. I never sauté my veggies and you are so right, by the time the dressing is done, they are soft and almost disintegrate into dressing.
4. I make a chicken stock also and I know it's good when it gets all jellied like that. I save the fat to sauté the trinity veggies and make my gravy.
5. I have heard about adding boiled eggs, but I have never tried it. I would have to make a small pan for myself and see how it taste. My family would lose their mind if I change the dressing recipe.
6. My secret ingredient? I add a pack of breakfast sausage. I brown it and make sure it's crumbled up as fine as I can get it. You don't taste it in the dressing, it just give it a different flavor profile.
Adding boiled eggs to dressing is more wholesome.
Tammy, not only are you and excellent cook you are also a super teacher!
This is the second time within a week that I've heard of people putting boiled eggs in their dressing. Leslie from the Farming Pastors Wife that's a friend of yours mentioned she grew up eating boiled eggs in hers too. I can't believe in all my 39 years of life I had never heard of this before now and I was raised in the south in North Carolina too. Thanks for the tip on making sure the dressing cracks across the middle too!
Thanks again👍👍💕💕❤️❤️.love y'all. You teach me many short cuts. Wish I could've watched y'all many years ago, but you wasn't on the. You all make me very happy, with all your valuable ideas.,👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💕❤️
I used heavy cream in my dressing.
It was delish.
My mother used evaporated milk and water.for years making bread dressing . I showed her how to make cornbread and bread dressing. I worked in a fish restaurant in Louisville and the ladies of colored showed me how to make cornbread dressing.This was over fifty years ago. Cream of tartar will help you clean a pot. Don’t use it on an aluminum pot. Just love you guys. I love your kitchen. Norma Young in Owensboro, Kentucky.
I always put milk in my dressing. Why? Cause my Mom always did!! Your dressing is exactly like mine. Love your show🥰🥰
Thank u so much for the make ahead dressing video! Hope y’all have a safe trip and a fun time visiting ur families.
I Love to listen to you and Mr. Chris Talk, specially when your cooking. Makes it a very good Day.
Had to drop by to get
my “Southern-Lady” fix on …. Honestly
Your gifted voice is Angelic …🙏🏼
Sending love and light to all…
My mom made her dressing like this but also added 1 cup chopped walnuts and a cup of chopped fruit (peaches, or pineapple, or apples).
Ms Tammy, I am super glad that your recipes are included with every video! I have never made dressing this way before and I am looking forward to making it Thanksgiving week! Woo-Hoo!
Hope you’re enjoying your time back home. I watched the live Collard Valley Baptist Church on UA-cam this morning and I just loved the service, and your brother was so overwhelmed with emotion- I understand completely!
Praise the Lord! ✝️🙏
Regards to your family!
Love, bea
@bea, I watched this morning on Facebook, it was so good. A beautiful service and Tillman wanting to be baptized is so heartwarming 🙏❤
🎼Isn’t the Love of Jesus something wonderful?🎶🎵
I Thank God for bringing us all together through social media! Be well, Ms Kim!💐✝️
@@bea-zw6bq I'm so thankful for being lead to so many wonderful friends! Take care 😊🥰
Be safe and hope y’all have a great time !! Love your video’s!!
Remember to save your egg shells for your garden,makes great fertilizer.
Thanks for the tips I've learned a few things. Thank you.
In my dreams I wish I could have a White Lily cookbook 🥰
I made your chicken pot pie today. I used a rotisserie chicken we had 3/4 leftovers. Carrots, potatoes, green beans and mushrooms. The gravy was wonderful and it made 2 full pies. 1 for the freezer
Sounds great!
I wanna do this recipe so bad! I’m too darn pregnant and tired from chasing children so I’ll have to cut some corners but this reminds me of how we use to make dressings!
Where are two from? Your accent reminds me of my Mississippi family!
Georgia
I use milk in my dressing, too----buttermilk if I have it. Happy Thanksgiving to all!!
My mama was a wonderful cook, but she said she learned so much once my sister and I took home ec. In highschool. We would come home and tell her what we learned whether it was cooking or sewing. I remember teaching her how to ease in sleeves. Yea, I never again had a top with ugly sleeves.
I used to put boiled egg in my dressing till my Italian grandmother bought me that by putting the eggs in raw it keeps the dressing moist . Any it really does so I just use them raw .
Hi Tammy, thanks for taking time to show us some good southern cooking love your videos. Hey I made your turkey dinner in a crock pot. Man was it deliciousness. Everyone. Loved it. This recepie is a keeper for us. Happy thanksgiving to you!!!
My late MIL also added a huge heaping big spoon of Kraft real Mayo. It was so good.
I am so glad I bought your cook books. You are not lying when you say you cook like Momma did. I am really impressed with your chicken and dumplings recipe.
Thank you so much!
This is different . My mom and great grandma cornbread with water no milk when done break up add onion and celery pieces of Turkey and turkey broth and sage damping it not soaked cover it with aluminum foil put in the oven till done remove aluminum foil put back in the oven until Brown .
Thanks Tammy and Chris. I enjoyed watching the video. Loved the tips about baking and freezing cake layers!
A dish washer tablet works on a burned pan.just soak it overnight..
This Make Ahead Chicken and Dressing recipe looks so delicious Ms. Tammy. I totally agree with what you said about making a recipe your own recipe which lets you modify it to your own taste and liking.
Thank you for adding the boiled eggs. My mama sure did. And I loved her dressing.
It’s not up to others to be telling you how to fix your holiday meal.
You fix it like you want. Your showing others how you do your meal not what others have to do.
Golly gee.
I’m doing Cornish game hens since there is two of us.
Mashed potatoes and homemade gravy, stove top dressing, broccoli with cheese sauce and lime green jello salad 1 hour homemade rolls got recipe from one of the channels I am subscribed to who is doing a collaboration. Then home made
No bake pumpkin cheesecake.
I’ve made the kind you cook that’s delicious too.
And breakfast is homemade coffee cake in a bunt pan with icing drizzled on top.
Same for Christmas except a ham in silver foil wrapping from Aldi’s. Their Hams are delicious.
Hope you and Chris have a blessed thanksgiving.
Tammy I made your giblet gravy last year where you added part of your raw dressing to the gravy. That gravy would have made an old shoe taste good. Best gravy I have ever had. Thanks
Sounds great!
I add mushrooms, raisins, dried cranberries, and walnuts to my dtuffing.
I use evaporated milk in my dressing. It’s so good
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family from Springfield, Missouri.
My GRANNY put biscuits in her dressing it was good.
I use hamburger buns for my dressing works perfectly no eggs no milk no broth I only use butter
These recipes bring back sweet memories. Thanks for sharing.
I’m sure going to try some milk in my dressing next time I make it bc I don’t like my dressing to be so gritty. Thanks Tammy for that tip! I almost forgot….Happy Thanksgiving and I pray for traveling grace for you and your families. God bless
Looks DELICIOUS Tammy. I love your recipes, you're a great cook. I'm going to make this very soon.
My grandmother put boiled eggs in her dressing too 😋
My Mom got her White Lily cookbook last month.
Ok Y'all wish me luck it just went in the oven! It's my 1st dressing I've ever made and I'm 60 yrs old besides stovetop! lol We will be traveling so I'm going to use a cooler like you said to keep it hot, what a great idea!
