A while back I saw an article/recipe for baking watermelon — the watermelon was cut into fillets and baked for a couple hours (IIRC). This was supposed to totally change the texture and give it an interesting and new taste/texture.
I cannot find the recipe now, and cannot find any other recipe similar to it.
This is not a recipe request, but rather a question about the technique: how would one go about baking watermelon (what temp/how long?) and what is the result? In what kinds of dishes would one use baked watermelon? Savory? Sweet?
(Note: I know this question is worded poorly and is slightly ambiguous. any help in rewording and working into a good SE question would be welcome!)

Here are a few references for cooked watermelon:
All of these methods produce quite a change in texture from raw watermelon.
