    What I learned from this is never let a physics major cook you dinner, unless you want charcoal for chicken (200C !?!)

      Yeah 60c is done for chicken. That’s where meat goes from pink to white. It takes 18 min to kill dangerous food bacteria at that temp.

      I was gonna say to start laying off when it gets to 165F, I don’t think residual heat will help in this case 😁

        0 C wouldn’t quite be frozen solid for chicken since it’s not pure water. According to a quick search, chicken (unbrined) freezes at -3 C. So technically it is defrosted, but it should start out closer to 10 C for good results.
