(Everytime is going to be different.) This is a personal taste decision.

I like my dressing moist so I add broth until I have a very wet mixture.

Any type pan will work for baking.

I generally use a 8 x 8 disposable pan, but if I am making a double batch I use a 9 x 13 pan.

Bake for 30 min, uncovered, or until golden on top.

This is enough to stuff an 8 to 10 lb turkey, if you so desired.

**NOTE**I have made this several times for vegetarian dinners, omitting the bacon, drippings and chicken broth and substituting with either butter, or olive oil and vegetable broth with great success.

ALSO--If you save leftover pieces of cornbread/bread heels in a ziploc bag in your freezer, you will have half the work already done when your ready to make this.
