A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
A guy on YT actually tried it experimentally a few years ago (how many slaps, not how fast one slap); and it works to some degree! The main problem becomes to make a slapping machine that can survive long enough:

Excellent, physics in service of humanity!
The chicken has to exceed the boiling point of water for it to be cooked? Unless we’re making chicken caramels, I don’t think so.
Doing some math, I think it works out to 6,242 slaps or a single slap at 1,939 mph. Much more attainable.
That 205C would just be the surface temperature of the chicken, not the average. Note that the calculation doesn't take into account the volume or radius
EDIT: No, I'm wrong. The calculation is for boiling the whole chicken. Who was this written by, a Brit?
Are you sure? The numbers in the ~~tweet~~ reddit post talk about total mass and heat capacity. So I think that means the entire bulk has that average temperature.
See my edit
One thing’s for sure: a chicken slapped at 3726 mph won’t be very tasty. Or look too good.
What, you don't like ~~vaporized~~ ionized poultry?
How fast does it cook in a vacuum?
I'd suspect it doesn't cook so much as, y'know, explode and dessicate
How many wanks to choke my chicken?
I don't really know you, but your ex told me three strokes, tops
