14 Thanksgiving Day Fails and How to Fix Them

A big blunder on Turkey Day doesn't have to derail the entire celebration. You can overcome spills, stained clothes and burnt food this Thanksgiving with our helpful how-to guides.

Is there anything worse than being ready to sit down for your meal and finding the turkey isn't done? Poultry must reach an internal temperature of 165 F at the thickest part of the bird to ensure that it is cooked fully and safe to eat.

If your turkey is struggling to reach a safe internal temperature, cut it up into smaller pieces and return it to the oven so it will get done faster.

Sometimes, despite our best efforts, the turkey is overcooked, unevenly cooked or simply too burnt to serve.
