Directions:Grease a 9-by-13 baking dish with vegetable oil.
Heat the 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add andouille, onion, celery, bell pepper and jalapeños. Cook, stirring, for 5 to 8 minutes, until the vegetables begin to soften. Remove from heat.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a large bowl, combine cornbread with stock. Add cooked vegetables, eggs, oysters, scallions, parsley, salt, pepper, cayenne, poultry seasoning, oregano and thyme. With your hands mix all ingredients well. Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish. Cover with foil and bake 1 hour.
Remove baking dish from oven, uncover, bake another 20 minutes, until the top of the stuffing is golden brown and crusty. Remove from the oven; let sit at least 15 minutes before serving.

Notes: I actually saw this recipe in the Times Picayune, in November, 2009, and it comes from “Down Home with the Neelys: A Southern Family Cookbook” ) by Food Network stars Patrick and Gina Neely. I remembered how good it was when we made it that year, and I thought it would go nicely with the duck we fixed this year. (The andoullie we used was from Poche's in Breaux Bridge.) It is yummy.
