I now swear by this hack!

🧽 Step-by-Step: How to Clean Oven Racks with Zero Effort

Step 1: Remove the Racks

First, turn off and cool your oven completely. Carefully take out the oven racks and bring them to your bathroom or wherever you’re cleaning them.

Step 2: Set the Stage

Lay a towel in your bathtub if you’re worried about scratching the surface. Then place the oven racks inside the tub or large container.

Step 3: Fill with Hot Water

Fill the tub with enough hot water to completely submerge the racks. The hotter, the better — steam is your secret weapon here.

Step 4: Drop in the Dishwasher Tablet

Pop in one dishwasher tablet and walk away. It will fizz slightly as it dissolves and begins to break down grime.

Step 5: Let It Soak (Overnight Magic)
