Traditional Pork, Sage and Onion Stuffing

I firmly believe that the whole idea of stuffing a large bird like a turkey is to help counteract the drying-out process during the cooking. Pork sausagemeat is an ideal ingredient for this because the fatty juices from the pork help to keep the flesh of the turkey moist.
