  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 2 pkgs bulk pork sausage ( 12 oz each)
  • 2 cups sliced celery

  • Place turkey breast side up in a shallow roasting pan. Brush with butter. Bake uncovered, in preheated oven for 2 to 2-1 /2 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 1 70 degrees (cover loosely with foil if needed to prevent over browning.)

  • Spoon into a greased 3-quart baking dish. Cover and bake in 325 degree oven for 1 hour. Serve with sliced turkey. Makes 15 to 20 servings. Enjoy!
