I made oyster dressing for the first time

It's something I've always loved but have never made it until last night. It's very easy and I'll surely be making it again. Here are the ingredients clockwise from the top. Stale french bread, oysters, garlic, hot pork sausage, Italian bread crumbs, green onions, Italian parsley,and thyme. Not shown are the hot sauce, salt and pepper...
I rendered the hot pork sausage and drained the fat. I then softened the onions, bay leaf and garlic, then added the green onions and parsley for about a minute. In went the chopped oysters and cooked sausage on low heat for 15 minutes. I tore off pieces of the french bread and soaked them in the reserved oyster liquor and added it to the mix. Then the bread crumbs, hot sauce, thyme, salt and pepper were added and cooked just a bit longer. I let this cool and this is what it looks like...
This will be put into a casserole dish and baked about 30 minutes before serving for the win.

Talk about culinary coitus interruptus...

Serious question, I've never eaten oyster dressing before... does the sausage not overpower the oyster flavor? Do the oysters still have a distinct presence?

No shite Otis.
ETA I've always used John Besh's recipe and it's a hit during the holidays.

It's either him or someone else that always does this with their process threads. Such a tease

No pic of the finished product? It all turned out good?

When are you serving it? Is dinner casual or dressy?

Nah....I'm not much on posting step by step prep pics. There are others in front of me!

I came here to look for tips on oyster dressing, and as usual, this board delivers.
It's not something I've made before and I volunteered to make it for Thanksgiving. I found a bunch of different recipes with sausage, bacon and ground beef.
Does anyone have strong opinions either way? I saw a suggestion for John Besh's recipe - he uses slab bacon.
