Once again, Bob is on a mission to perfect his Thanksgiving turkey, this time experimenting with a meticulous three-day brining process. But as the holiday approaches, the family wakes up to a shocking discovery—the turkey has somehow found its way into the toilet. Even after Bob replaces it, the same bizarre incident repeats itself the next day. Who could be behind this turkey turmoil?
The mystery unraveling in this episode is both hilarious and endearing, and it’s precisely this blend that lands it so high in the rankings. It captures the chaotic essence of Thanksgiving—family members, like Gayle, showing up and stirring the pot, kids eager to join the grown-ups at the table, and the perpetual quest to cook the perfect turkey.
And let’s not forget one of the standout moments in the entire series: a deli counter saga where a worker hilariously misinterprets Bob’s frequent returns for replacement turkeys as romantic advances. This episode arguably stands not only as the top Thanksgiving installment but as one of the best in the entire “Bob’s Burgers” lineup. So, as the holiday rolls around, make sure to revisit this classic and enjoy the laughter it brings!
