This is divine! Don't tell anyone there are oysters in it (that's what my mom did and it was the first thing to go at Thanksgiving) and people will inhale it. I have served this where everyone ate this stuffing and not the regular kind. They had NO idea there were oysters in it. I don't like oysters but THIS is my favorite stuffing recipe.

This was a good stuffing. We love oyster stuffing and always wanted to try it but was afraid of wasting the oysters if it didn't turn out. I'm so glad i tried this , I will make this often, not just for the holidays. Thank you for posting.

This recipe is amazing! I can't wait to make it again this Thanksgiving. My only suggestions: 1. Vegetable stock substitute is fine. 2. If you're not going to stuff it in the turkey, I like making it the night before. I think it actually tastes better the next day, reheated in the oven.
