We've all had them. Christmas Vacation comes to mind when the turkey was way overcooked! Haha! Here are Some Big Thanksgiving Disaster Stories from our friends at Garden &  Gun...

We lost a turkey one year. I will leave it at that. Mom still can’t talk about it, and it was over 15 years ago. —Jessica B. 

Sister-in-law broke her nose during the family touch football game. —Rusty M.

Some Big Thanksgiving Disaster Stories!

The neighbor’s dog ate the raw turkey. —Tara M. 

I accidentally stirred pieces of a dead cricket into the gravy (long story). Daughter dumped a pan of hot grease down her leg (third-degree burns). We have many disasters. —Nancy A. 

Husband, while chopping vegetables, sliced his finger instead of celery, which resulted in a trip to the ER. —Marie N. 

My mom didn’t fully cook the turkey, and we all got food poisoning. It hit me at a bar the night before the Georgia-Georgia Tech game and everyone cheered me on while I puked my guts out because they thought I was so drunk. —Danny O. 

After the big turkey dinner, there's always room for desserts. Mom makes some of the best pies and cakes and I always look forward to that.

Here are some  Thanksgiving desserts ideas here.
