WATERTOWN, Mass. —

Medium Rare in Watertown, Massachusetts is helping everyone to have a safe Thanksgiving by offering to fry people's turkeys for free.

The "Free Turkey Fry" is in its 18th year overall for the chain, but Thursday marked the event's Boston-area debut.

Anyone who brings a fully thawed turkey (up to 10lbs) can have it safely fried for free by the expert chefs.

The offer stands on a first-come, first-served basis until 4 p.m.

By this point we've all seen the videos of a frozen turkey dipped into hot frying oil.

The effects can be explosive, and that's what the owners of Medium Rare want to avoid.

As a reminder if you do have to fry the turkey yourself:

The turkey MUST be thawed if you're deep frying it

Don't use too much oil

Don't fry close to your house
