Equipment

Ingredients

1 lb extra lean ground beef
1 tablespoon cooking fat beef tallow, lard, or bacon grease
4 celery stalks chopped
1 medium onion diced
1 apple diced
2 cups walnuts finely chopped
1 clove garlic minced
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning or mix of fresh herbs finely chopped
Sea salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375 F.
In a large pan over medium heat, add cooking fat and sauté the ground beef and celery for about 3 minutes. Be sure to crumble the ground beef into small pieces.
1 lb extra lean ground beef, 4 celery stalks, 1 tablespoon cooking fat
Add the diced apple and onion to the pan and continue cooking for another 2 minutes.
1 medium onion, 1 apple
Mix in fresh herbs or poultry mix, minced garlic, walnuts, and season with salt and pepper. Stir well. The meat should still be somewhat pink, as it will finish cooking in the oven.
2 cups walnuts, 1 clove garlic, 1 tablespoon poultry seasoning, Sea salt and black pepper
Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and spread it evenly. Bake uncovered for about 30 minutes until the stuffing is golden brown and cooked through.

Notes

Lean ground beef is recommended, but you can use a higher-fat beef, just drain excess fats off before baking.
This can be baked in any baking dish that is 9"x9", or larger.
For a different flavor profile, use a mixture of ground pork and ground beef, or a mild sausage.
