Corn bread made in the skillet was a staple of the pioneer diet.The Stuffy History of Corn Bread and Sausage Stuffing

Stuffing or taking dried fruits, grains, and vegetables and cooking them inside a cavity of our dinner meat is a tradition that may go back to the Romans. In ancient recipe books you find instructions for using old cereal called spelt to stuff hares and boars. The Victorians in English speaking countries called stuffing for poultry ‘dressing'; so dressing the bird went beyond removing feathers and innards. Later the term ‘stuffing’ replaced the word dressing.
Hoosier pioneers would have been familiar and probably stuffed their Sunday dinner birds with cornbread and sausage stuffing. Corn bread was the original pioneer bread and sausage was the way to preserve meat during the summer months. Not all sausage would have been from pork. Most families thought ‘pork’ was an important commodity to sell; not eat.. Venison sausage probably would have been a more popular choice and certainly liven the taste of any cornbread and sausage stuffing, hence I am sure there were many additional spices added to the recipe to tame that gamey taste.
This recipe makes enough stuffing for one 10 to 12 pound turkey. It leaves enough to be set aside for a stand alone casserole
