In a large skillet cook celery, onion, and carrot in hot butter over medium heat for 7 to 10 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; stir in parsley (if desired), poultry seasoning, and pepper. In a very large bowl combine celery mixture and bread cubes. Drizzle with enough broth to moisten, tossing lightly to combine. Place stuffing in a 2-quart casserole. Bake, covered, for 30 to 45 minutes or until heated through. TO MAKE DRY BREAD CUBES: Set oven @ 300ºF/150ºC. Cut 12 to 14 slices white bread into 1/2" cubes to yield 8 cups. Spread into two 15x10x1-inch baking pans; bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until dry, stirring twice; cool. (Cubes will continue to dry and crisp as they cool.) Or let bread cubes stand, loosely covered, at room temperature for 8 to 12 hours. SLOW COOKER DIRECTIONS: Prepare as directed, doubling the amounts of all ingredients, except use 1 1/3 cups chicken broth. Omit the 2 quart casserole and lightly coat a 3 1/2 or 4 quart slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray. Spoon stuffing into the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 3 1/2 to 4 hours. (Stuffing gets very moist as it cooks.) MAKE-AHEAD DIRECTIONS: Prepare as directed through Step 2, except do not preheat oven. Cover casserole tightly with plastic wrap; chill for up to 24 hours. To serve, preheat oven to 350ºF/175ºC. Remove plastic wrap. If desired, drizzle stuffing with an additional 1/4 cup chicken broth to moisten. Bake, covered, for 40 to 45 minutes.
