If you’re looking for a terribly dangerous and really stupid way to cook a Thanksgiving Turkey, have you considered encasing it in molten glass?
If so, Alton Brown has you covered.
The worst thing about this, apart from the real possibility of horrifying maiming and potential death, is the fact that the skin is the best part of the turkey and breaking the glass to get at the turkey will probably take the skin off with the glass…

Perhaps next year, Alton Brown and Derek Lowe (who has been known to post a recipe from time to time) can do a collaboration.
Call it “Turkey I Won’t Work With”. Admit it, you’d pay money to see them cook a turkey with chlorine trifluoride or FOOF.
On the other hand, the chlorine and fluorine compounds might impart an off taste to the turkey. You might have to fall back to good old LOX. At least there’s precedent for that. (Everyone remembers George H. Goble, right?)
