Yuck, I would never attempt to thaw out a rock hard frozen object in the microwave.  Lots of things could go wrong. Explosion, is first thing that comes to mind . Sounds nasty to me.

I found a copper-colored aluminum pan in the thrift store for 97 cents that switched between being a boot tray and then (after being washed well) a defrosting pan. Worked fine. The brand was Techniques or something like that, which QVC used to sell.

 

But I don't like defrosting outside the refrigerator. Just not a smart idea; easy to forget I've put something out. So I usually put the item to be thawed in a red collapsible dishpan I got on QVC and give it a day or two to  be ready to cook, depending on what it is. Those dishpans are so useful, I bought a few sets (K48531) in different colors for different purposes. The reds are dedicated to thawing.

I've had one for a number of years and love it. Granted, I don't use it often, but it does work well. They thaw anything much more quickly than other methods I've used. I don't like using my microwave because at some point it starts cooking the food. That's only my last ditch method if I need some like right now!

I have a ThawExpress I bought from the Q eons ago.  Works great.

 

I don't like thawing in the microwave AT ALL.
