Bourbon & Bacon Stuffing is about to be your new favorite Thanksgiving / Friendsgiving side dish!

Recipe is below...prepare to have this stuffing devoured very, very quickly! Only downside, you won't have any leftovers!


Bourbon Bacon Stuffing Recipe

What You'll Need:
2 loaves of bread (bakery Italian or french bread that has gotten a little crusty works best)
5 eggs
1 package of bacon
2 cups chicken (or veg) broth
3 tablespoons bourbon (I used Woodford Reserve but any bourbon will do)
2 apples, diced
1 large yellow or sweet onion, diced
4-5 large celery stocks, diced
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon thyme
1 tablespoon parsley
Garlic Powder to taste
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
1. Start by sizzling up the bacon (Make sure to save the grease when it's done!).
2. While the bacon is sizzling, combine the cubed loaves of bread, apples, onion, celery, and garlic.
3. Once the bacon is done to a crisp perfection, break into small pieces.
4. Now put everything into the pan with the bacon grease and add the bourbon, chicken (or veg) stock, eggs, thyme, parsley, garlic powder and salt and pepper.
5. Simmer for about 5-10 minutes - until everything is softened and mixed together.
6. Remove everything from the pan and put into a large baking dish. Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes.
7. Enjoy!
