tossed lightly and put loosely inside the bird to absorb all the flavors and moisture of the bird. It came out hot, steaming and delicious, was removed from the bird and served on the side. With gravy. Yum!

It actually helps keep moisture IN the bird when cooked in the internal cavity. Turkey can dry out fast if you don't have it stuffed.

I make "in and out" stuffing. I will cook some in the bird and some in a casserole dish if people don't want to do the "in bird" version. Even the stuff I cook in the bird I will toss back in the oven to make sure it's fully cooked after I remove it.

You can also put onions and lemons inside the body cavity to help keep the bird from drying out if you don't want to put actual stuffing inside. Look up Geoffrey Zakarian's sumac dry brined turkey for a nice recipe.

Stuffing.

 

[CCsGarden]

Both

Stuffing if it's cooked inside an animal. Dressing if it's made separately.

 

[MotherofOrpies]

Dressing goes on a salad, stuffing in a bird, never heard it called dressing

 

[The Moonshiner]

Neither, none

The bird has already been dressed, now it's time to stuff it.

Dressing, we serve it in the side. I’ve no desire to give guests Ptomaine poisoning by under cooking the stuffing (in bird).

I'm vegetarian, but in my opinion stuffing is what goes *in* a turkey, and dressing would be a topping or something
