Chef Alton Brown shows us the ways we should not prepare a Thanksgiving turkey, but which may appeal to a certain portion of internet users. He calls this "Hazardous Turkey Cookery for Adrenaline Junkies." In part one, above, he addresses the dangers of deep-fryinging a turkey and how to make that adventure somewhat safer. Then he attempts to cook a turkey by electrocution, which involves attaching electrical wires directly to the bird instead of putting it into an electric oven. The results are rather implausible. But in part two, he harnesses an actual cooking method from Norway.
Yes, he really cooked a turkey with molten glass. It seems a valid cooking method until you get into the details. How do you get the turkey out of the glass? When the glass is hot, you could burn yourself or leave drops behind. If you wait until it cools, you'll have glass shards in your food. You'll be pleased to know that no one actually ate the turkey cooked in glass for those exact reasons. -via Geeks Are Sexy

In this one, Brown covers an attempt to cook a turkey with a rocket engine. What could possibly go wrong?
