Sausage Stuffing Balls

Stuffing/sausage balls

It would not be Thanksgiving without Grandma Kraus’ Sausage Stuffing Balls. This recipe has been passed down from her mother. Here is the recipe…

Sausage Stuffing Balls

3 lb. Fresh Pork Sausage
2 1/4 cup hot water
3 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
24 oz. seasoned stuffing mix
1 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 1/2 cup finely chopped celery

Combine stuffing mix with hot water. Break sausage into small pieces and add moistened stuffing mix. Stir in onion, celery, eggs and baking powder. Shape into balls (1/4 cup). Place on baking pan. Cover with foil, bake at 325° for 15 min. Remove foil; bake at 350° for 25 min or until done.

Serve hot, but also great as leftovers, cold.

  1. That looks simply mouthwatering. Must. Make. Some.

  2. I’d recommend sauteing the onions and celery a bit to soften. These things do not disappoint, and are honestly the highlight of every Thanksgiving since I can remember. One of the many reasons that I am so very thankful to have my grandma in my life!

  3. I’m assuming you guys are making the standard 200 stuffing balls this year.

  4. so……..chorizo stuffed dates and stuffing balls….i’ve got a lot to live up to!…..nothing beats my awesome homemade cranberry sauce!!
