Watch a Drone Deep-Fry a Turkey, Because THANKSGIVING

After centuries of being largely earthbound, your Thanksgiving turkey is finally able to fly. 

That is, with the help of a drone … and into a pot of boiling oil.

Just in time for the holiday, a Maryland-based drone business called Intelligent UAS has premiered a video of a drone picking up a turkey and lowering it into a deep fryer.

First spotted by local Washington, D.C., news station WUSA 9, the video sets a new standard for the Most American Way to Cook a Turkey, beating out its bacon-wrapped and Rice Krispie competitors.

Add it to the list of other unnecessary but entertaining things that people use drones for. Now where’s my drone-delivered stuffing?
