Default Cheated on the stuffing

Question for you. BTB has been mentioned frequently here.
I've considered it before but it seems only like bouillon.
Guess I need to examine ingredient list tomorrow.
Is it real dehydrated chick stock, or about the same
product as plain bouillon?

So far, I use real home made chicken stock/broth but I usually
add just a nip of bouillon to enhance the taste.

Don't need the bouillon with turkey stock. It's much more
favorful and achieves the cold gell state easily.

Same here, the Thanksgiving turkey gets the works with stuffing
for me. I make tons of it as it's the best part of the dinner,
imo.
I pack the body cavity and also the neck area. Usually have more
left and I'll put that in a small casserole dish for extras.

As you said, cooked IN the bird is best. I agree completely.
