I love a good oyster dressing but you will likely get some recipes that call for adding ground meat as a filler, and to me that is a no-go. Oyster dressing should be made with oysters, veg. seasoning, oyster liquor that moistens the breading and make adjustments on the salt, pepper and other seasonings.
It's too easy to overboard on the salt depending on how salty the oysters and oyster liquor are to begin with.

My Mawmaw was a good old redneck lady, but man she made a delicious cornbread oyster dressing every Thanksgiving.

eta here's my mom's. once she was in her 80s, she slowed way down with the elaborate thanksgiving meals but she still made a helluva oyster dressing and put alot of work into when we came into town and it was just her 2 grandkids and nobody else.
it had to be some very simple ingredients; you can see the whole oysters in this pic; just absolutely the star of thanksgiving dinner.

Emeril oyster dressing
I’ve made this one before. It’s very good. Just oysters, veggies, bread (and a little Parmesan)

My dad talks about how his grandmother used to make this and he wishes he could replicate it or have a recipe for it. His mom made a version but never was able to get it right. I’ve never had it but I’ve always been intrigued. My childhood best friend’s family owned a fish house that specialized in oysters but they sold out about 5 years ago and my source dried up or I’d probably just have it a go.

hot take alert
oysters are tasty and delicious
cornbread or breadcrumb dressing is tasty and delicious
oyster dressing is neither
now, if you make a good cornbread and sausage dressing, heavily herbed and flavored, and top with perfectly fried oysters…sign me up

I’m doing this Peter Sclafani’s Oyster Dressing for Thanksgiving.
Can anyone recommend the the best place in Baton Rouge for a gallon of oysters?
It got cutoff but it is 1-1/2 loaves of French bread.

Can you get them unwashed at Tony’s?
My mother in law gets them somewhere in Hammond or Ponchatoula which I could chase down but hopefully I can find them in town.

I swear her recipe looked simple as shite but I can't come close to making it taste good and have the same texture.
We would literally fight over it.
Perfectly baked whole oysters liberally sprinkled throughout that cornbread dressing.
Oysters tasted like heaven.

WTF does unwashed mean??

When a recipe calls for unwashed oysters, it typically means that the oysters should be used in their natural state, without being rinsed or scrubbed.
This is often done to preserve the natural brine, or “liquor,” inside the oyster shell, which can add flavor to the dish.
The natural brine is a key component in many oyster recipes, contributing to the overall taste and texture.

Simply put, oysters opened and store in their own brine straight from the shell.
Due to health concerns for people who have gotten sick eating raw, right out the shell oysters, the gov. decided it best for oysters to be cleaned with fresh water and stored that way in containers to be put for sale to the general public.
That's one of the reasons I open my own since I love the taste and the ability to use the original oyster brine (Liquor) to store the opened oysters and to use it when making seafood dishes and used as a flavoring stock.
