Oh, so many memories of family gathered around Mom's large dining room table for special occasions and holiday come to mind when I make this delicious recipe! Everyone said Mom made the BEST oyster dressing, but she also remembered those who didn't eat oysters and made just plain dressing for them. Just be sure to check oysters for bits of shell and or baby seed pearls.

How to Make Mom's Old-Fashioned Oyster Dressing

Step-by-Step

In large pot, melt butter over medium heat. Saute' onions and celery. Add chicken broth and liquid from oysters. Remove from heat.
Add chopped oysters, bread crumbs, and all seasonings. Stir to mix well. If too moist, add more bread pieces. Taste and adjust seasonings.
Grease casserole and add dressing, smoothing the top. Another option would be to make large balls of dressing and place in casserole.
