Directions Show More

  1. Thaw Turkey: Thaw under refrigeration for 48 hours. Once thawed, dice turkey. Hold at 41° F or lower.
  2. Dry and Season Bread: Preheat oven to 350°F. Cube bread and spread over 4 sheet pans lined with parchment paper. Spray with cooking spray and sprinkle each pan with 1 Tbsp granulated garlic. Place in the oven and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and toss. Cook for 5 more minutes and repeat one more time. Remove from the oven and set aside. Note: Bread will not be completely dry.
  3. Prepare Stuffing: In a kettle, tilt skillet, or large stock pot, heat vegetable oil on medium-high heat. Add onions and celery. Stirring frequently, cook for 5 minutes. Cook until onions turn opaque. Continue to stir frequently to keep vegetable pieces from burning. Stir in turkey, seasonings, and cherries. Cook for 3 minutes. Add chicken broth, bring to a boil. Remove from heat. Stir in dried bread until rehydrated.
  4. Bake Stuffing: For each 100 servings, divide stuffing into 4 – 4” steamtable pans. Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and stir. Place back in the oven and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and stir. Repeat two more times or until stuffing is desired consistency. Remove from the oven and serve. Heat to 165° F or higher for 15 seconds. Hold at 140° F or higher.
  5. Serve: 1 cup (~8.5 oz wt). Hold at 140° F or higher.
