You will need a large plastic bin bag, ammonia, a bin, and a place outside where you can leave the racks overnight as well as a hose connected to water. We’ve rounded up those summer chores you might have forgotten about in one easy checklist, plus tips to make the work easier. The inside of an oven is usually metal with a porcelain or ceramic enamel coating which is much easier to clean than the stainless steel wires of an oven rack.

It’s tempting to just ignore the mess and close the appliance’s door until the next meal (same deal with the crumby toaster oven and the splattery microwave), but you’re really doing your future self a disservice. Just remove the racks, spray them, wait up to 30 minutes, then rinse them and wipe them with a cloth.

Then cover the racks with hot water and add half a cup of dish soap, as this helps to degrease the racks. If using steel wool, put on rubber gloves to protect them from getting little steel slivers (learn from my mistake there!

Using a scrubber sponge or pad, apply the paste and scour gently to remove grease, grime, and residue. Shake your liquid Bar Keepers Friend bottle and then squirt it out onto a wet scour pad or steel wool pad. During steps four and five you’ll have a lot of time to get cleaning the rest of your oven, including the inside, hobs, extractor hood and other components. The years I have spent toiling with a fibre pad and never knew making my oven sparkly was this easy.

Rub down the entire oven rack with your pad, making sure enough Bar Keepers Friend is covering it as you go. This makes the oven easier to keep clean, but you will still need to wipe down the base, door and shelves in the traditional way.There are so many rows to scrub, it’s too large to soak in your kitchen sink (or at least most people’s kitchen sinks), and you can to clean both sides and the edges. This is much easier if you take the foil out of its container first because you don’t have the sharp cutting edge to deal with. Even those who use their oven sparingly will still have an accumulation of residue after a few months.
