Melt 1 cup butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add 1 medium finely diced onion and 2 cups diced celery. Cook for 5–7 minutes until softened.
Remove from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
Stir in 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning, ½ teaspoon black pepper, and ½ teaspoon salt.
In a small bowl, beat 2 eggs and stir them into the cooled celery and onion mixture.
Place 12 cups dried bread cubes in a large bowl.
Pour the onion and celery mixture over the bread cubes. Add ¼ cup chopped parsley and stir until the bread is evenly coated.
Grease a 6 qt slow cooker well and pour the mixture evenly in the crock pot.
Gradually add 2–3 cups chicken broth, a little at a time, just until the mixture is moistened. Gently stir to combine.
Cover and cook on high for 30 minutes.
Reduce temperature to low and cook an additional 3-4 hours or until hot and cooked through.
Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes
Check on the stuffing regularly and stir if needed. If stuffing begins to dry out add more broth. You can use drippings from your turkey if making on Thanksgiving for even more flavor. Top with more fresh parsley before serving.
Recipe Tips
Stir Mixture - Make sure to check on the stuffing regularly and stir if needed. If the stuffing begins to dry out, add more broth.
Turkey Dripping - You can use drippings from your turkey if making on Thanksgiving for even more flavor.
Dry Bread - Make stuffing with dry bread. You can dry bread uncovered on the counter or in the oven. You want to use dry bread instead of fresh bread.
Adding Chicken Broth - Add chicken broth until the mixture is moist. You do not want the mushy. If you add to much chicken broth, just add in more cubed bread or croutons.
Refrigerate Mixture -After combining the ingredients, make to sure to refrigerate mixture.
Prepare Slow Cooker -Before adding in the mixture to the slow cooker, make sure to spray cooking spray. This helps with clean up and serving the slow cooker.
Cornbread - Use cornbread instead and make Cornbread Sausage Stuffing Recipe. For a twist on your classic stuffing recipe, use cornbread instead.
Cranberries - If you prefer a hint of sweet to your stuffing, add in fresh or dried cranberries. We love the way it taste and it looks beautiful when serving.
Vegetables - You can easily add in fresh mushrooms or bell peppers for added flavor.
