Cook it ‘til it’s hot: Pop-up turkey timer experiment [Video]

Have you ever considered the inventors behind the tools that help us roast the perfect turkey? Our gravy train is rolling right into the Thanksgiving feast! First up, we have Florence Teel, who flew turkey prep to new heights with a basting device, ensuring our birds are succulent with flavor. Next up is a gravy separator, invented by Harvey Lyons, which helps us ditch the grease while keeping all the tasty goodness.

But how do we know when our turkey is fully cooked? Thanks to food thermometer inventors George Ford and Anthony Volk, we can easily tell when it’s ready for our feast! Let’s dive in as things heat up in today’s experiment!
