We do both, because while my mom likes the mushy stuffing cooked inside the turkey, everyone else likes the stuffing cooked separately. Plus, my boyfriend is a vegetarian, so he has to be able to eat the stuffing too. We use Pepperidge Farm (not the cubed kind, the kind in the blue package that's all crumbly). I honestly can't imagine Thanksgiving without it; we've been eating it forever, and it's conveniently vegetarian, unlike some other stuffing mixes. My mom doesn't like onion, so we don't add any vegetables, but I do use Imagine No-Chicken Broth:
It does magical things to food, plus I can make a "gravy" out of it for my boyfriend pretty easily. It's my favorite broth/stock because it's vegetarian but it doesn't taste vegetarian.
Some Thanksgivings I also make "Stuffin' Muffins"--shamelessly stolen from Rachael Ray--wherein I put the stuffing mix into muffin tins. It makes it all crunchy and delicious.
