4. Douse grease spills with flour
Whether you splash grease on the stove, counter or floor, you can make it easier to clean up by covering the spill with flour as quickly as possible. The flour will soak up the spill, making it much easier to wipe away, according to How Stuff Works.

3. Clean grease from inside your oven with vinegar
If you have thick grease stains (inside your oven or even inside your refrigerator), spray vinegar onto the grease and allow it to soak for at least five minutes. After removing the crusty surface, you can use baking soda to scrub the rest away.

2.Remove grease from the inside of your microwave
Fill a bowl or glass with 1 part water, 1 part vinegar. Set your microwave timer to 2 minutes and allow the mixture to boil. Leave the door closed to allow the steam to work for a few minutes, then take a damp rag or paper towels to wipe down the inside of your microwave.

1. Remove grease from the side of your fridge
If your fridge is near your stove, grease has probably splattered there too. To remove the grease, grab your iron. Place a wet (but not sopping) towel over the grease and use a hot iron to scrub over the towel. This will loosen the grease from the surface of the fridge. Wipe away the remnants with your rag (note: it will be hot, so be careful), according to a post on Cheftalk
