Play Video - 4:28
Chef Beau Macmillan uses brioche bread, breakfast sausage, chestnuts, and apples to add depth to his Thanksgiving stuffing.
Chef's tips: The stuffing may be placed inside the turkey or baked separately in a casserole. To do this, butter the casserole, place the stuffing in the dish, and cover with a buttered paper and at 350°F for 1 hour.
Make-ahead: The stuffing may be made in advance and kept refrigerated.

Place the cubed bread onto a baking sheet and cook in a preheated oven at 300°F.

Melt the butter in a small skillet, add the sugar and sauté the apples for about 2 minutes, add the chestnuts and cook together for another 2 minutes.
