eli5: Do we actually start to get cooked when we get third degree burns?

You have been cooked the moment you suffer **any** degree of burns. The fact that you got burned means that parts of your body got hot enough to have components change irreversibly/have their proteins denature - to have been *cooked*.  
  
The "degree" of the burn only serves to measure the severity by giving a scope of how *much* of you got cooked.
