Cracker Stuffing

From the Kitchen of: Carole from Upstate NY

A family holiday favorite contributed in the memory of my mother, Sally Fahmer.

Cut celery and onion in approximately 1/4" pieces. Place in a saucepan and add water to cover. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat. Meanwhile, crush the crackers medium fine with a rolling pin and place in a large mixing bowl. Crumble the raw pork sausage into the crackers. Add salt and pepper. Pour the celery/onion mixture over all and stir to mix. Add additional water if necessary, but do not make too moist. This recipe makes enough stuffing for a 15-18 pound turkey with an additional side dish of dressing. Stuff and truss the turkey and then roast according to any good recipe.
