Detailed explanation-1: -Cover the Pot with a Metal Lid-Fire cannot exist in the absence of oxygen. With the lid on (and the heat off), the fire should quickly consume all the oxygen and put itself out. Use a metal lid since glass will shatter. Pour on Baking Soda-Baking soda will extinguish grease fires, but only if they’re small.
Detailed explanation-2: -Turn Off the Stove. If you’re cooking and a pot catches fire, the first step is to remove the heat source. Cover with a Lid. The easiest way to cut off oxygen to a grease fire is to cover it with a metal pan lid or baking sheet. Douse the Flames. Use the a Class K Fire Extinguisher. Call 911. 07-Oct-2022
Detailed explanation-3: -NEVER move the pot. You could splash burning oil on yourself – or spread the fire. NEVER use water. Water and oil don’t mix. NEVER pour baking products on the fire. NEVER attempt to smother the fire with flammable materials.
Detailed explanation-4: -Cover the flames with a metal lid or cookie sheet. Leave the cover on until it has cooled. Turn off the heat source. If it’s small and manageable, pour baking soda or salt on it to smother the fire. As a last resort, spray the fire with a Class B dry chemical fire extinguisher. 21-Mar-2017
