- Step 6 Put dressing into a large crock pot that has been sprayed with a cooking spray. Cover and cook on high setting for 3 to 4 hours. Stir mixture about half way through cooking time., taste and adjust seasonings at this time.
- Step 7 When dressing is done it will hold several hours at the low heat setting.
