Preheat oven broiler at high with the rack about 6 inches from the flame.

In a large saucepan, bring chicken broth, water and ½ cup of butter (cut into 8 tbs) to a boil at medium high heat. Add both packages of stuffing mix and stir. Remove from heat and cover till all liquid is absorbed.

Meanwhile, in a 12” skillet, or non-stick pan, warm 2 tbs of butter and 2 tbs of olive oil at medium high heat. Piece in sausage; cook till browned (about 5 minutes). Add diced apple and stir; cook for another 1 – 2 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Add cooked sausage and apple to stuffing; stir to combine.

Transfer stuffing to a small steel, or teflon, cake pan, lined with 1 tbs of butter. Garnish with onion slices – as many as you like; brush with remaining tablespoon of oil. (Wrap unused onion slices in a resealable storage bag, or cling film.)

Broil stuffing for about 5 – 6 minutes, or until onions appear golden with some charring.

Serve alongside turkey with Shiitake and Herb ‘Au Jus’, Garlic and White Cheddar Mash, So, This Is The (Almost) Famous ‘B’russels Hammond’ and Sweet & Savory Casserole.
