I just tried this today and it is amazing! I soaked both towels in the hot water with the oxy and I also included a dishwasher soap tablet, my racks were really really bad hadn't cleaned them in 6 years so I thought a little extra punch couldn't hurt. I only let them soak for about a half hour while I washed a couple of windows. Then I pulled them out 1 at a time. I didn't even need to Scrub. The baked on grease and food just wiped off with my scrubby sponge. Just remember to put your gloves on. Whatever is in either the oxy or the dishwasher soap won't come off my hands, but my rings have never been cleaner. She says 2.5 hours but honestly even counting my half hour soaking time It didn't take me a full hour start to finish. I have never been so happy to clean my oven racks! Thank you!!!!!
Easiest way that i found years ago. I place racks in a heavy duty garbage bag. Pour 1-2 cups ammonia in and close the bag tightly.I leave the bag outside overnight. The next day hose down the racks. Then I go over lightly with an sos pad. Hose off again and dry. They come out great and NO SCRUBBING!
@@janicegilbert4029 I live in an apartment as well, I do the same thing and simply place the bags in the tub overnight, just ask your family first to be sure everyone won’t need the tub until the next morning. Since the racks are in the bag and not touching the tub I find that more sanitary. Then I remove the racks, hold them up and rinse them with hot water from the shower (I use gloves so I can use the hottest water possible) hopefully this works for other families like mine who do not have a backyard☺️
After trying everything( oven cleaners- soaking-scrubbing - steel wool- ugh) nothing seemed to work- so I just quickly opened and closed my oven door when I had guests over- looked pretty bad :-( !! I decided to give this method a try. Well, the results were amazing! Yes, I used some old HOT TOWELS - I used a " steel scrubby" instead of SOS - and some elbow grease! I also added some TIDE to my HOT WATER! It only took my 1:15 minutes - start to finish!! THANK YOU!! My oven racks look fabulous!!!!
My no scrubbing method, take them outside, lay them on a green trash bag, spray with oven cleaner, wait half an hour, spray with the garden hose, removes all the baked on gunk.
I wanted to do that. I can't though because I live in an apartment.😓 And I heard that even if the oven cleaner says you can use it on racks, that it can destroy them. Has anyone else heard this? Has anyone had any problems? I will probably soak mine in a plastic bin. I will do it in the bath tub, less mess.
not sure I understand this: if the racks are hot, and you place them in the garbage bag after getting them out of the oven, how does the garbage bag not melt once the racks are in them?
I put mine in a black garbage bag and spray both sides with Easy Off oven cleaner in a trigger spray outside. Put a twist tie on the bag and bring inside and lay flat overnight. Next morning just have to wash them off.
I bought a plastic tray that is larger than the oven racks and I put the liquid in the tray and then put the racks in the water and leave them to soak for about three hours. This makes it a lot easier and without the fiddly job of putting the racks in a garbage bag, there is no need to use litchen towels either..
I take the racks outside, lay them on the ground and spray thoroughly with oven spray cleaner. Then I put them in a large black garbage bag and spray them thoroughly again. Seal the bag and leave them over night. I've actually left them in for a week until I needed them. (Usually put the bag in the basement.) Remove from the bag, rinse and wipe with abrasive pads using gloves. Most comes right off. Rinse again, dry and back in the oven. Not perfect but nearly so. I mean, they are oven racks.
Thank you for your comment! Oven cleaners are definitely useful but also really harmful to us humans, animals and the environment so when you use them do so safely and modestly. Cheers!
I read or heard recently that if you leave your oven racks lying out on the wet grass overnight,, that they will be very easily cleaned the next day, I haven’t tried it yet though
really, thank you for showing this option. nicely done! however for me there is way too many steps involved and WAY too much time involved. I'll keep looking for a much simpler option. best of luck to you! regards,
I'm trying it now! I don't have a bathtub or a pan large enough to soak mine and I want to use the bag option as a last resort. I just took out my top dishwasher rack and laid all 3 in there at an angle. 2 hour heavy duty wash. We'll see!
Absolutely! However, beware that the use of heavy chemicals in your home is harmful to humans, pets and the environment. Specially if you are planing to use your oven anytime afterwards, it would be like seasoning your food with a tiny bit of such spray. Would you eat it? Cheers!
Excuse me! Have you ever cooked a chicken? Not sure how she roasted hers, but mine was on high with no cover and I heard it splattering all over & it was! What a mess! The chicken was delicious, but my oven was a total disaster!
Scrubbing with steel wool pads for over forty five minutes per rack may be simple, but it surely is not easy. And at the end you still had baked on crud at the wire joints as well as elsewhere. No dear, this method is certainly not professional. Imagine someone paying you 2 1/2 hours wages to play around with three oven racks.

WHAT A DIRTY PERSON NOT CLEANING YOUR OVEN FOR 6 YEARS SHAME ON YOU

You wouldn't be able to do that in the winter. But it does sound like a great idea
Doesn't work for those of us in apartments, either. 😛

Me too. If you leave the bag in the sun, it works too.

I lay mine on newspaper in the sun. Spray with oven cleaner. Come back in an hour and wash off with hose. Works great.

Agree. Works every time. Waste of time and effort doing what she’s doing.
I will try this!

those were my first thoughts. lol AND she has a large sink, I have double.

Nice work. I'll try. Scrubbing is painful now. Hopefully this will reduce scrubbing.
Thank you they came out really good, my solution is using an air fryer, there so easer to clean. This way my oven stays clean. 😉
Don’t forget the toaster oven 😊

Where did you buy the tray?
@@Dickyricky69I see you didn’t get an answer, so I’m trying to help. Try Home Depot. My hubby just came home with one.
If the racks are hot, how come it doesn't melt the trash bag (even with the towels inside?)
Hi lore, your voice is a melody for my ohren!!

@@lorenaleon6391 Common, harmful to humans, animals, and the environment?
@@bobkucharski9425 Yes. Read the label. Do your research.
@@sheepishlysharing Thank you for your suggestion. After further "research", this product should not be swallowed (more sarcasm)
@@sheepishlysharing I get it, my comment was sarcasm.
Although you don’t need many supplies this job seems very tedious and combersome
I read or heard recently that if you leave your oven racks lying out on the wet grass overnight,, that they will be very easily cleaned the next day, I haven’t tried it yet though
Thank you for sharing your tips with us 😍😘
My pleasure 😊
Lol... no more talking, let´s get started. .. love it!!
Very well explained
Great tips Thanks for Sharing
I do similar, with ammonia in bag out side. Hardly have to scrub. Much easier. Let set 1 day.
In the winter, the bag could be tied closed and laid in the tub or on the floor in the basement.
Thanks for your sharing Ma'am!❤
Great video and great advice
really, thank you for showing this option. nicely done! however for me there is way too many steps involved and WAY too much time involved. I'll keep looking for a much simpler option. best of luck to you! regards,
Great video
I love your voice, i am your new fanboy!!!!
Wow! Thank you!
great idea , i just put baking soda and vinegar to the oven,. i will try this tomorrow. thank you😊
My oven is 20 years old never clean the racks today is not looking good either😂
This looks very simple! I'll try it.
Awsome! Let me know how it goes!!!
Such a fantastic method of cleaning oven racks. THank you so much.
Pale?
Smart idea! I just use a Brillo pad. This is a better idea!
I love Brillo pads, but where I live they are not easily found!
Amazingggggg!!!! Thank U
You're welcome!!
Doing A Replay
Amazing!
Thank you! Cheers!
Spray them with oven cleaner then put them in garbge bag overnight.
Suggest putting them through dishwasher first to soften baked on crud??
Just the sos pad works, rinse and like brand new. No need for such a complicated method LoL
Thank you !!
Just soak them in hot water with a dishwasher tablet added.
Thanks for sharing!
a quicker and less complicated way is to just scrub them in your sink , using hot water and a degreaser like Mr. Clean.
I put them in a trashbag with oven cleaner then scrub and rinse
Pale! Should be pail or bowl!
Theres got to be less complicated ways , lots of messing around
Works but a lot of effort. Self clean oven works but removes the shine from racks…
I agree!
It not only removes the shine but it will ruin the bearings that the racks slide in and out. Wait until you have to buy new racks. YIKES
Two and a half hours of scrubbing?? No, thanks.....
This is the EASY way?
I'd hate to see the HARD way!
Better to buy a cooked chicken in the first place and not get you oven dirty at all!
Or cover the chicken while its cooking. Wonder if she heats food uncovered in her microwave too? 🧐🤢
ভালো হোইছে ভিডিওটি, ওভেনের ভিতরে ক্লিন করার একটা ভিডিও বানাবেন পিলিছ
PAIL
Just put them in the dishwasher when they’re a little dirty
My racks are too big for dishwasher
@@dlowry5257 I agree much, much too big.
I'm trying it now! I don't have a bathtub or a pan large enough to soak mine and I want to use the bag option as a last resort. I just took out my top dishwasher rack and laid all 3 in there at an angle. 2 hour heavy duty wash. We'll see!
Pail
Wow. That’s a lot of trouble. I just buy a new. 🤣
Forget it…buy a desktop convection oven…it will change your life.
Haven’t you heard of easy off spray ?spray the rack in your oven and you oven ! You rinse the racks and wipe off your oven ! Not so much work 😏
Absolutely! However, beware that the use of heavy chemicals in your home is harmful to humans, pets and the environment. Specially if you are planing to use your oven anytime afterwards, it would be like seasoning your food with a tiny bit of such spray. Would you eat it? Cheers!
Hint: pale is spelled pail. Pale means light in colour.
*pail 🤣🤣🤣
Cheap stainless steel will rust and we all know where it comes from
pail not pale
Bathtube way easier, just sayin
WASTE OF TIME I HAVE A MUCH QUICKER WAY
Too time consuming 👎🏻
Far too much work use a lakeland tray to soak whole wracks in and scrub with wire wool no need for plastic bags or towels
You said no more talking..you never shut up hahaha...your oven cant have got that dirty by cooking one chicken....But thank you for your tip.
Excuse me! Have you ever cooked a chicken? Not sure how she roasted hers, but mine was on high with no cover and I heard it splattering all over & it was! What a mess! The chicken was delicious, but my oven was a total disaster!
Lol
This a square bowl, not a pail. Notice the way pail is spelt, not pale.
Spelt?🥴
Well, we all knew what she meant, lol. My mom always called it a dish pan. Not sure why exactly?
🤷

Pale? What paleface? Pail would be right!😂🤣😂😂🤣
Pail not pale
