Without fail, one thing we can count on year after year is that Thanksgiving day will be full of cooking fails across various households.
Whether it is first-time turkey makers or veterans themselves who make the slip-ups, it happens to basically everyone at least one point in their life. Admittedly, these kinds of fails might be a bit of a reoccurring incident for some more than others.
In the past, however, these fails were merely shared as an anecdote over dinner or in passing to a friend; but now ladies and gentlemen, we have TikTok, meaning we get to enjoy a laugh over others’ kitchen mistakes.
And hey, we don’t judge! I mean, how could we?! If it hasn’t happened to you already, you’re more than likely to endure a brutally burnt turkey or raw pumpkin pie sometime in the future. At the end of the day, the food we serve is hardly the most important thing about the holiday but instead the memories we make alongside our beloved family and friends.
Below, we’ve rounded up some of the most hilarious Thanksgiving cooking fails for your amusement. Enjoy!

Does anyone need five loaves of bread?
@disgruntaledbean she thought they where dinner rolls and ended up with 5 loaves of bread #thanksgivingfail #thanksgivingfails #breadtok
$87 worth of oil down the drain. But it looks like there’s a happy ending after all! Alls well that ends well.
