- 8 ounces sourdough bread slices, cut into 1/2-inch cubes (5 cups)
- 1 cup butter
- 2 cups diced andouille sausage
- 2 cups chopped onion (about 1 large)
- 2 cups finely chopped celery (4 to 5 ribs)

Add sausage, and cook, covered and stirring occasionally, 5 to 7 minutes or until butter turns a light orange. Remove sausage with a slotted spoon; drain on paper towels.

- Stir vegetables and sausage into cornbread mixture. Stir in oysters and next 2 ingredients. Spread in a lightly greased 13- x 9-inch pan; cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake, covered, at 400u0b0 for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake 30 more minutes or until browned and thoroughly cooked. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
