Burlington, VT - Thanksgiving is considered to be one of the most enjoyable times of the year, unless you're the cook in the kitchen. The thought of preparing the perfect Thanksgiving dinner for all of your family and friends can stressful for many.
That's how this Thanksgiving was for John and Melissa, a couple who wanted to share their story with you about a Thanksgiving Nightmare they recently encountered.
"We decided to host Thanksgiving at our house this year, which was the 2nd time we'd ever done it. Last year we had 12 people over, this year we planned for 20!"
Everything was going smooth, they were up at 6 AM to finish tidying the house and prepare Thanksgiving Dinner. The Turkey was slow roasting in the oven, the rest of the food was being cooked on the stove top and right on time.
Next up to start cooking a was a new recipe that Melissa found on Pinterest™ for 'Deep Fried Stuffing Balls'.
"They sounded delicious and it was something unique that I thought the whole family would enjoy."
That's when things went horribly wrong...
Melissa prepared the balls while the oil was heating in the pan. Then she started dropping them in, not realizing how high the temperature increased. Immediately oil was splattering everywhere and out of control. The pan burst into flames and Melissa started panicking.
"I knew trying to put it out with water wouldn't work, and I didn't have anything to stop the fire from spreading."

Melissa called 911 and John immediately ran to the neighbor asking for help.
Luckily, they were prepared.
Their neighbor had Fire Blankets as well as an Extinguisher.
They quickly ran inside, tossed two Fire Blankets over the top of the stove and counter, instantly suffocating the fire.
They then used the Extinguisher to put out the flames crawling up the cabinets.
It was over in a flash. Thankfully their neighbor was prepared and able to save the day, preventing their entire home from being destroyed. Luckily nobody was hurt. Cabinets were destroyed, plastic was melted on everything, glass shattered. They lost $1000's due to repairs and replacements.
John is sharing this story with us today to encourage others to be prepared, especially during the holidays. Cooking can get out of control very fast and you'll never know when you may need the right tools.
"We own multiple Emergency Fire Blankets now, as well as an Extinguisher. I just wish I discovered your Emergency Fire Blanket sooner. My kitchen was in flames, and one tool could have stopped it all immediately."
