Slow Cooker Sausage Cornbread Dressing

Stuffing, or dressing as it’s frequently called in the south, is the ultimate comfort food and the part of the Thanksgiving meal I look forward to most. But something this good shouldn’t just be eaten once a year. I find it makes a delicious side for just about any fall or winter meal.

A cornbread dressing with lots of Italian sausage is one of my favorite ways to make stuffing. And I especially love this slow cooker version. It’s super convenient for Thanksgiving when oven space is hard to come by.

To make Slow Cooker Sausage Cornbread Dressing, I like to use Johnsonville Italian Ground Hot Sausage. It also comes in mild and sweet flavors but I really like the taste of the hot sausage with cornbread.

All three flavors are so versatile in the kitchen. I love the flavor Italian sausage has and find it so convenient that Johnsonville sells Italian sausage in ground form so you don’t have to mess with removing it from the casings.

For this recipe you’ll want to use cornbread that is a day or two old. Either make your own or buy some at the store. Make sure not to use sweet cornbread.
