I make Mom's stuffing from memory so there is no "official" recipe
Melt butter in a large skillet, then add onions and celery and saute until tender. Remove from heat and place onions and celery and butter in a bowl.
Brown pork sausage using the same skillet, then put in a colander to drain fat.
Heat chicken broth.
Put croutons in a large bowl and Mix in sausage,
Next thoroughly mix in spices and sugar and salt. It is easier to mix them in before adding the liquid. If spices are fairly new amounts may be reduced.
Add onions/butter/celery mixture and fold in. Be sure it is evenly distributed.
And 2 cups of broth and gently fold in. Allow to stand a few minutes to absorb broth.
Add more broth a little at a time and gently stir. If you are going to put the stuffing in the bird it should not be very wet as the juices from the bird will moisten it during cooking.
Stuff the bird.
If there is stuffing left over add a little more broth and cook separately in a bowl.
Note: To simplify Thanksgiving morning I cook the onions/celery/butter and the sausage the day before and store in the fridge.
