Yeah, but not of a tin of lube. They're not designed for direct heat. You
should have emptied the contents into a saucepan first.

Over on uk.food+drink.misc there's a thread developing on American turkey

Surprisingly, the tin was hardly affected. But in case there are any kids
viewing, it is not the best approach. Mind, I'm not sure about my mother's
reaction to lube in one of her pans.
