Buttermilk
3 TBSP butter-flavored Crisco
A bunch of green onions, chopped
3 stems of celery, chopped
Cream of Chicken Soup
1/2 teas. sage seasoning

Clean the chicken...wash and pull out the gizzard and liver, unwrap them and cook with the chicken. If you have a pressure cooker, cover the chicken with water and cook under pressure for 20 minutes. After cooked, set aside and let cool. Set aside the gizzard and liver for the gravy.
DRESSING:
While the chicken is cooking, in a large bowl, crumble the cooked cornbread and add the chopped onions, celery, 3 chopped boiled eggs. Add 14-16 oz of homemade cream of chicken soup, sage, all purpose seasoning, chicken broth from the cooked chicken and stir together. If the mixture is too thick, add a little hot water until it's the right consistency. SET ASIDE 3 VERY LARGE SPOONFULS OF DRESSING FOR THE GRAVY. Bake the mixture at 350º-375º until form or brown on top, about 35-45 minutes.
GRAVY:
Combine 14-16 oz. of homemade cream of chicken soup, the 3 spoonfuls of dressing, 2 chopped boiled eggs, gizzard & liver (chopped), a cup of cooked chicken, chopped. Add a little grated carrot for color if you have it in your kitchen. Add a little hot water for the right consistency of gravy. Cook real slow and simmer.

Carrie Underwood’s husband has a tune out & Erich church disses garth
Eric Church lost CMA Entertainer of the Year to Garth so at his show Saturday he changed the lyrics of ‘Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way’ to “I know Garth didn’t do it this way.” Then he smiled and shrugged his shoulders. The crowd knew what he meant and roared! The song criticizes the glitz of top selling county stars in the 70s so he inferred Garth’s fame is more glamor and materialism. Fans are bringing signs to his shows saying he’s the real Entertainer to which Eric replied, “I’m fine with it and the CMAs made the wrong fans mad.”

In his spare time on the road, Kane Brown plays a lot of the game cornhole. It’s something he and his band have done together ever since they started touring.

No dress code is posted at Jason Aldean's Kitchen + Rooftop Bar in Nashville yet a woman said her husband was denied entrance because of his race and his hoodie.

It sounds like third-party security contractors violated policy.
