In a large saute pan on low heat, add the ground spicy pork sausage and cook slowly to render out the fat, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, fennel seed and celery salt. Once the fat is rendered and the meat starts to brown and crisp, add the carrots, celery, chestnuts, fennel, onions, garlic and sage. Cook until the meat continues to brown, the carrots become soft and tender and the onions become translucent, about 10 minutes.
Add the crumbled cornbread and chicken stock and stir until completely incorporated and the bread is moist. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with the parsley.
Serve family style in a large bowl while still hot.
