I've heard that one of the best ways to put out a grease fire in a pan is to put a lid on it. This smothers it quickly. Even though an ABC fire extinguisher is rated for these, you can still spread flaming grease around (not fun!)

Yes, the fastest way to put out any fire is to deprive it of oxygen! That's why, if your clothes catch fire, you stop, drop and roll!

Besides that, who checks the drip pans every time you turn on a burner anyway? I know I never did. And it taught wifey a good lesson in the end.

To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.
Ecclesiastes 3:1The clock of life is wound but once and no man has the power
To know just when the hands will stop - on what day, or what hour.
Now is the only time you have, so live it with a will -
Don't wait until tomorrow - the hands may then be still.

Keep a box of baking soda by the stove.
You can put it into a 'cheese shaker' - the kind you see in a pizza joint - to keep it handy.
If you live in a humid area, put a cracker or an shelled almond into the shaker to keep the soda from clumping.

He sure would have - and he would have given lots of good advice. He once sent me a looong e-mail with good advice about a fire extinquiser? I have.
We so miss you miss you, Phred!

My mom has a ceramic top. My condo has a gas cooktop. I had never cooked on gas, so I've had a few mishaps with the bottom of the pan. I hate doing the drip pan job, so I'm going back to a flat top next. When I first moved, Phred and I exchanged PMs on the right type of fire extinguisher. It's stored right next to the broom in the kitchen closet and I think of him every time I see it.

I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!
Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!
