Moving a burning pan of grease? In a panic? Thats a visit to the burn ward
Zaynara
better burn ward than morgue!
J4nB1
For a fire you always need 3 things: heat, flammable stuff and oxygen. Take one of those away, and the fire dies out. Always remember that!

Also remember to NEVER put water on a grease fire. Water will just make it spread.

Basically a fire is just a combination of oxygen, fuel, and heat. Putting the lid on it deprives the fire of oxygen which kills it.

I don’t own a pan thing like what he has, I do own baking soda and that works just as well
textilelover
You could just use a lid or another pan or pot. Baking soda makes kind of a mess. Not sure why you got dv'ed though.
CrazyCatLad
If there's a fire, who really cares about the mess caused by baking soda though?
I'm not keen on cleaning. Slapping a pot on top is easier for me.

A damp (not wet) cloth will do.

Should use a lid to the pan on fire, but a cookie sheet would work.
I think most people have two pans, which have flat bottoms.And it doesn't have to be flat just big enough to completely cover the other pan.
RdizzyC
Yeah, but If I'm using my big pan, which I usually cook in, I have no bigger pan, and no baking sheets either. And my lid is glass.
Huh. I guess I just assume i'm the norm with lots of cooking/baking implements.

Yep. Let it slowly run out its fuel source.

TooFunkToDrunction
But that’s not what’s happening here, he’s cutting off the off the fires oxygen supply

Oxygen is fuel in a combustion reaction.
Oxygen is the oxidant. Whatever is burning is the fuel. In a cooking fire like this it could be grease, for example.

That’s why it’s the fire tetrahedron the chemical reaction is the fourth component google fire tetrahedron
Yeah, but your image is the triangle - which I'd argue is the chem reaction. It's a category error, I think. Parts mixed with the sum.

no we fucking don't. I use a comal even though I have a gas stove
Im just going off by what I’ve seen in my city. I seen people use a gas stove by itself a lot.
I mean, I'm not saying people don't do that, I'm saying #NotAllMexicans
LordDebuchan
So...why not just leave the cover on it instead of ripping it off before the fire is even out?
YouSufferWithCognitiveDissonance
Ideally the time the cover is on the pan should be the same in each instance
objectmaker
Slow cover suffocates the fire faster
knobhoblin
If you just slpa it down it can potentially waft out fire from the sides in the process
dagg3r
Its called panic.. and he is trying to teach that its not how fast you do something. Its being in control, if you’re fast you’ll knock it
Hey don't knock it til you try it.
Tigermd
That’s the most delicious fire I’ve ever cooked
MAP25
I was just gonna say, the trick isn’t sliding the cover on, it’s leaving it there long enough to put the fire out
popgunhopgun
Which is think is also his point. To take care, and be in control of the situation.
kittybuttwiggle
from watching this I assumed the slam down method smushes a bunch of air into the pan. He didn't seem to keep it fully shut that much longer
Oolai
similarly, I thought the slow slide method also allows the remaining flames to burn up the air in the covered rest of the can which also
contributes to smaller and more controllable flames
RobotPandaz
I think sliding it is safer for your hand. When you fan down on it, the flames blowout in ever direction, including towards the handle...idk
Fair point.
Blade8
This looks like good sense, but so hard to figure out.
FarOrangeLex
Yes you‘re absolut right
Ketheres
Which can potentially lead to you taking your hand away, kinda like how he demonstrated it
LynchMeDaddy
Funny how it do like that
JaromirAzarov
And remove the pan from the heat source, too...
The1stBellicose
That's a terrible idea.
JackieTreehornProductions
Don’t move the oil/grease though... bad stuff happens when you panic.
ImageAberration
That can help, but it's dangerous. You really don't want burning grease splashing out of the pan. ...
Usually safer to cover the pan, turn the stove off, but leave the pan in place until fire is out and the pan cools off.
That's why I prefer induction cookers, once it's turned off there's very practically no heat left in the surface.
The contents would still be hot, no?
IceyStars
NO! NEVER move the pot due to oil splashes. That happened to my teacher, her arms were badly scared because she did what you had suggested.
