The holiday season can definitely be the most wonderful time of the year, but it can also be the messiest. Not just mounds of guest laundry, piles of dishes, and tree needles everywhere, but the inside of your oven too.

With endless entertaining and large birds coating the inside of our ovens with grease and dropped potatoes, we need to get down and dirty the clever way to keep our ovens clean during the messiest time of year.

The clever way to clean ovens means forgetting the elbow grease and letting today’s fabulous features take the lead. Yes, my friends, this Holiday Season let the oven clean itself, you have enough on your plate.

Self-Cleaning

This is the most common clever cleaning feature on ranges (would you believe the self-cleaning oven is over 50 years old!). Used regularly, it can help keep your oven working at its best.

Here’s a helpful video showing how to use the self-clean and steam clean features in Samsung appliances.

Aqualift

Maytag’s Aqualift innovation offers cleaning at a lower heat and adds in water.

Steam Clean

In addition to the power of steam in your cooking, steam options also help with the clean-up too.

GE has a helpful video showing steam clean features on their ovens

So pick out a great book, pour yourself a cup of tea (or wine!) and let your oven do all the work. You’ve worked hard enough this holiday season.
