Question about turkey; Also need GOOD rice dressing recipe
Posted on 11/4/14 at 3:00 pm

If I bake/roast a turkey breast, make gravy and then slice the turkey and freeze it in a pan with the gravy, it should be fine for a week, right? Have a family get together for a Confirmation and son wants turkey but I won't have time to cook it the day of.
ALSO, I'd like to try a new rice dressing recipe ... anyone with a good one? We tend to like dressings that have a "roux flavor" in it and NO giblets.
Thanks for any help. Will be doing a brisket but found a recipe in the cookbook link at the top.

I don't know what's in Hebert's (in Maurice)dressing mix, but it's delicious. I buy that, make the rice, toss, heat and serve with chopped green onions tossed in, as well.
Can you cook the turkey a few days ahead, make the gravy and just warm it?

I've bought their dressing stock before and it was NOT nearly as good as the dressing that is in the chickens. My son actually said "please don't buy that one" but he LOVES it when in the chicken. Go figure.
And that's what I'm hoping to do for the turkey. Should be ok, right?

Thanks Bug ... may just leave the chicken livers out! I have a recipe that I like but it's ground beef and Jimmy Dean sausage and NO ground pork. Son doesn't like it as much ... this may be the right combo in your recipe. Thanks.

Must be the chicken juices that are cooked into the rice dressing stuffed in the chicken. I love the stock, though. You could add some turkey juices to it.
Your turkey is going to cook a lot longer than the stuffed chickens. Don't know if the rice dressing can handle that much cooking time. I've never done it and I would think the rice might get pretty mushy, but maybe someone else has done it. I'd cook it separately and make some turkey stock from necks and wings to add to it and use the rest with the drippings for gravy.

My sister-in-law makes a "dressing" for the picky eaters with browned seasoned ground meat and lots of green onions that she tosses in after the dressing is cooked. All she does, though, is brown the meat and add it to cooked rice. It's actually good, but not really dressing.

Thanks ... should have clarified ... dressing will not be in the turkey. Just saying that the dressing in the chicken is better than the dressing stock alone mixed with rice.
