*** Their BBQ chicken wings thing was fake , they were precooked and they used a convection oven to heat them up ,LOL ***

Source, please. This is what I found:

Chinese astronauts on the Tiangong space station are cooking freshly-prepared (not precooked) chicken wings using a new hot-air oven, which allows for actual cooking, complete with browning and chemical reactions, rather than just heating.
This new oven is a major advancement for space cuisine, enabling astronauts to cook from raw ingredients and improving their morale.

China’s space station is also capable of cultivating lettuce, tomatoes and potatoes, according to the China National Space Administration (CNSA), which can all be used to cook in the new space oven.

On the International Space Station (ISS), all food is precooked or processed, so can be prepared by adding water or warming up.

Like most bachelors' kitchens on earth.

I bet a flaming wok would be exciting on a space station.
