Maw Maw's Turkey Dressing with a twist

The basic recipe for this dressing was handed down to me from many generations of grandmothers. It is called "Maw Maw's Dressin'" because all the "Maw Maw's" in my family made it for holidays until and I began making it for our Thanksgiving family get-togethers when I was 9 years old. My Mom helped me until my early teens when I began making Thanksgiving Dinner by myself because usually my Mother had to work.

2 pkg. cornbread mix prepared and cooked; 6 to 8 home made biscuits; 1 medium onion; turkey broth and canned chicken broth; rubbed sage; salt and pepper; 1 can oysters undrained; 1 cup uncooked rice; 3 eggs.

Crumble cornbread and biscuits into a large greased roaster pan. Chop onion and add to bread mixture; add about 1-3 tbsp rubbed sage (make this to your taste and be sure to use fresh sage). Add salt and pepper to taste. Chop oysters and add to mixture along with oyster juice; add raw eggs to mixture. Stir all ingredients well, then begin adding broth and mixing well. The mixture will be thin; place rice into bread mixture and stir well. Bake covered at 375 for about 45 minutes or until rice has taken up most of the moisture. Bake uncovered a few minutes longer until set and brown on top. Serve with sliced turkey or other poultry. This same dressing can be made with pork broth from a fresh pork roast or fresh (uncured) baked ham; if you have to add liquid to this, use water.; 10:42 AM, November 28, 2005
