    I’d be interested at seeing what cooking chicken at 600C would do, but my oven goes less than halfway.

      The outside would be burnt and the inside raw. There might be a layer of well-cooked chicken between them, though just cutting through it to see that will contaminate the cooked bit from the raw bit. That’s why the penicillin sauce is so important.

      There’s a way to cook a steak called black and blue. It was invented by steel foundry workers.

      Basically you take a thiner steak and slap it on a red hot slab of steel for a few seconds each side.

      You get a nice outer char mixed with an almost raw center.

      Anyway, red hot steel is not something that most people have access to, but I have a few different types of forge, both solid fuel and gas.

      The “self-clean” function might get that high. I think most ovens lock the door when you do that though.
