  • Turkey Stuffing question?

    Here's the thing, each year our whole family gathers together and does different dishes for Thanksgiving. This year, I thought I'd give the little Turkey guy a try. I've got the little guy almost done, I just need to marinate him, and I need to get the stuffing ready. I got some recipes online but they seem a little too "difficult". Yes, I know how to cook, lol! But I'm not a great cook. I need a simple, not-too-long, delicious turkey stuffing recipe for Thanksgiving. Any ideas?

What I'd like to know is whether or not agar agar can be used for such a thing or if I should invest in a different gelling agent?

    does the wood chips go on top of the charcoal? Do you add anything into the water like a sauce or anything? And lastly what effect would the self basting property of the turkey will it have on the end results? And since it is already basted should olive oil be used? I am looking for responses so you dont have to have everything but I will most definitely choose a best answer tomorrow?
