It is important to cover stuffing (dressing) while cooking it. One of the important ingredients to a good stuffing is water, and therefore, it can dehydrate making for a dry stuffing.

If cooking stuffing, whether in a container by itself or inside a turkey, cover with aluminum foil. Also, if cooking the stuffing inside the turkey, be sure to baste the stuffing exposed while basting the turkey.

Why must stuffing be cooked seperately?

The FDA recommends cooking stuffing separately from the turkey because the interior of the body cavity doesn't reach a high enough temperature to kill bacteria, which may cause food poisoning when the stuffing is eaten. If you try to remedy the problem by cooking at a higher temperature, the meat becomes dry and overcooked. Therefore, the recommended solution is to cook the stuffing in a separate casserole dish.
