Steps:

• Boil potatoes in salted water. Saute onion and celery in oil. Add salt and pepper to taste. Boil the giblets and neck in salted water to make stock.
• Moisten bread with milk. Smash the potatoes in a large bowl. (I use a small roasting pan, and then I roast the filling right in it.) Add all other ingredients including all spices and oil from saute. When adding the eggs, add a little of the hot mixture to the eggs first and beat well, so as to not scramble them when they go into the whole mix.
• Mix thoroughly. If it needs more moisture, add the stock, a little at a time. Taste to make sure enough spices are added. Add more salt and pepper and poultry seasoning, if needed.
• Bake at 350 degrees in a greased casserole dish or roasting pan until very hot and browned, usually one hour. Dot the top with pats of butter before putting into oven. I know some people chop the giblets and add to the filling, but I don't.

Add 7 tablespoons butter, the onion and celery; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 8 minutes. Stir in the thyme, sage and poultry seasoning, then add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Whisk the half-and-half with the eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl. Add the warm potatoes and mash; season with salt. Mix in the bread and the sausage mixture. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in the microwave. Transfer the stuffing mixture to the baking dish, then drizzle with the melted butter.
