Safety Sundays With Paisley. Do you know how to safely put out a grease fire? Let me tell you! If a fire starts in a pan, carefully slide a lid over the pan to starve the fire of oxygen. Be sure to turn off the burner, too! Leave the lid on until the pan is cool! Moving the pan can lead to serious injury or even spread the fire! Never pour water on a grease fire!
