I'm not much of a cook, but I was a fairly popular bartender, and I was under the impression that alcohol was only 'cooked' out if there was an actual fire - like the flaming shots and other incredibly stupid drinks like that.
(there's enough horror stories of
those things going wrong to make anyone believe in the insanity part of the disease of alcoholism)
The incomprehensible demoralization of waking up without eyebrows! Or worse - half a mustache!
