Is it stuffing or dressing? [View all] Aerows Nov 2015 OP

It's stuffing if it was cooked inside the bird muriel_volestrangler Nov 2015 #1

Correct, and the safer way to cook the substance is outside the bird. merrily Nov 2015 #20

I didn't stuff the turkey this year Aerows Nov 2015 #28

Aha! So, you knew the answer all along! Another OP with no purpose other than divisiveness. merrily Nov 2015 #38

Well now I wish I wouldn't have made it Aerows Nov 2015 #41

Ah, 165 °F not 160 °F Brother Buzz Nov 2015 #63

It's also possible to get the stuffing at or above 165F by the time the bird is done Major Nikon Nov 2015 #88

Yes, and that was recommended in the USDA article Brother Buzz Nov 2015 #90
