Mimi's (Jones) Sausage Stuffing

Submitted by kitty.rock

"This is the most wonderful sausage stuffing, and my mom Mimi made it every year at Thanksgiving and/or Christmas. I like it even better than her homemade cornbread stuffing. I'm assuming she got it from the Jones Sausage package. I think you could use any mildly-seasoned ground sausage for this recipe. NOTE: The amount of liquid used may be adjusted based on your preference; start with 2 cups as a baseline."
