How do you manage to burn a turkey? There are hours of leeway between cooked and burnt.
Unless you accidentally put the oven on a clean cycle.
A smoked turkey looks like that, the skin gets all charred but it's succulent inside
Sugary glaze/coating. Maple or honey is common, or some kinds of brown sugar or molasses glaze. You'll burn the outer layer pretty quick especially if your oven is small and the breast is sticking up close to the burners...
Meat might be okay but the skin will kinda ruin the rest anyway.
Yes and *not* accidentally
The "oven" was a metallurgy furnace.
Food with included activated coal for better digestion. Nice. 👌
Who is Marie calendar?
Sharon deserves this.
There could never be a more appropriate response to a thread! I’ve been laughing for five minutes straight!
I have like 40 more replies to it lol
guessing it's a recepie blog/person
i'm also guessing Sharon there substituted eggs for diet mayonnaise and baked in 350°C instead of 350°F
edit: turns out it's even dumber. i reverse image searched and Marie Callander's is a shop that sells frozen meals... so this pie was ready, literally all it needed was to visit an oven of a certain temperature for some time
Well it says 40 minutes at 350⁰F, hmm so if I crank it to 700⁰F it should be done in 20 minutes!
why stop there! toss it into a pottery kiln at 2100°F and have it ready in less than 7min :)

Wait really? I thought it was just shitty frozen pie brand. Never seen a restaurant.
The restaurants only existed in SoCal. The frozen foods are everywhere in the US.
One of the better frozen food manufacturers in the US
TFW you forget to convert the Fahrenheit temperatures to Celcius.
I don’t think you can crank a home oven up that high. 600° F? Wow.
Top right is creepy. I wonder how that happened.
The product of devil worship in cohort with rock and roll, no doubt
I blame video games and D&D.
Why not drop the middle-man? I blame people having fun
