Fieri noted that he learned the technique from "a guy named Kim Gardner," who showed him how to make his first deep-fried bird. It turned out so well he wanted to make one for his family. But instead of measuring the oil properly, everything spiraled.

"Just like every video that you see on TikTok, it is a fireball of flames," he said.

The pot spilled, and the burner tipped, sending flaming oil across his patio and into the yard. "

My flip-flop is melted to the stand. So, I got one flip-flop on one flip-flop off," he added.

At that point, the turkey shot out of the pot and skidded across the lawn.Fieri ran after it.

"Grabbed the turkey. Now it's kind of coated in some leaves and such, and I grabbed the hose, and I'm hosing the turkey off. And I'm, it was about eight in the morning, so I'm hosing the turkey off."

The reaction from inside the house was immediate.

"There's no way in hell I'm eating that turkey," he recalled.

Before she became a household name for flawless dinner parties, Martha Stewart admitted, herfirst Thanksgivingas a newlywed was a total disaster.

In a 2017 interview with theDaily Mail, Stewart said she wanted to impress her new in-laws and volunteered to host. She woke up at 3 a.m. to stuff the turkey and put it in the oven, then went back to sleep.

That's when things went up in smoke.

"I preheated the oven to 500 degrees, then forgot to turn it down to 325," she said. "I woke up to smoke and flames."

Stewart rushed to a nearby farm, grabbed the last turkey they had, and even salvaged the stuffing from the burnt bird. Dinner was six hours late but saved.

Stewart, of course, has come a long way, sharing a photo on Instagram on Dec. 2, 2023, showing the heritage turkey she roasted for a friend's Thanksgiving buffet.
