Stop the mess with an indispensable skillet splatter screen

Tired of getting popped in the face by your frying chicken? Do you secretly think that your bacon is out to get you? Are you just plain sick of cleaning a greasy stove-top at the end of your meal?

Grab yourself a skillet splatter screen and be done with all of that. A splatter screen keeps the grease in the frying pan where it belongs and prevents you from getting any serious battle wounds from your job of chief cook and bottle washer.

This inexpensive gadget will save you oodles of clean up time too!

Read on to learn more about splatter screens and to find a great splatter screen at an affordable price.

What's a splatter screen?

And why do I need one?

A splatter screen is a flat circle of mesh that rests over the top of your skillet. They are available in metal or silicone.

Christmas Eve. at my house means plenty of frying fish and before I had a splatter screen, it meant plenty of painful little grease burns on my hands, and sometimes even my face, too!

I used to be terrified while frying my seafood but those days are over. Now I just pop my splatter screen over the top of the fry pan while everything is cooking, and when I need to turn the food, I hold the screen in front of the pan so there's no chance of me getting popped in the face by boiling oil anymore!

I learned how important a splatter screen can be the hard way, but you don't have to. Get a splatter screen for yourself today. I promise you that the next time you're treating the family to a fried, (or even braised) dinner you'll be glad you did!

This is the splatter screen I use

I love the Oxo Good Grips Splatter Screen because the folding handle makes it really easy to store away when I'm not using it and the handle fits really nicely over the handle of my frying pan.

It's not expensive at all and well worth the extra time I spend cleaning the splatter screen instead of the stove!
