the sausage to a colander to drain off the fat.
Melt the butter in the sausage pan. Cook the celery over low heat for 5
minutes, or until tender, adding the ham after 3 minutes. Stir in the bread
cubes, cooked sausage, cooked chestnuts, half of the stock, and salt and

spoon the stuffing into the cavity of a capon or turkey.
