The Aluminum Foil Hack To Prevent Your Stovetop From Becoming A Mess
By Julia Mullaney

Rather than having to wipe down the entire stove from inevitable grease splatter, focus on cleaning just one section by covering the unused burners with aluminum foil.
Food blogger Neena says to "quadruple layer" the foil (to make it nice and sturdy), then shape it to cover one burner. You can also do a larger second version to cover two burners.
Wipe the foil down, and reuse it without replacing it every time you cook. Most foils are safe on stovetops up to 650 degrees Fahrenheit, as long as it's not touching open flame.
This method won't work if you need to use every burner, and if you find grease stuck to your stovetop grates, you can ball up the foil and use it as a makeshift sponge.
