Griddles
If you have a metal or aluminum griddle you can buff it for a great shine with one part salt and one part vinegar and then heating the griddle.

Stainless steel pots and pans
If you have unsightly finger marks on your stainless steel pots and pans you can remove them with ease by using a soft cloth and polishing them with full strength vinegar.

Copper pans
Clean your copper kitchen pans with salt. Simply sprinkle in the salt and use a half a lemon or lime to rub the salt in to the copper. You will be left with a great shine.

Broilers
If you love to use the broiler pan in your oven but you hate the mess this tip is for you: Mixing one cup of apple cider vinegar and three tablespoons of sugar pour over the broiler pan right after you are finished cooking will leave you with an easy to clean mess. After the broiler pan cools you can wash it in hot soapy water and the greasy mess and baked on food will just wash right away!

Light colored pans
For lighter colored pans (the outside of your pan) you can brighten and clean them by making a paste of cream of tarter and lemon juice. Rubbing this mixture all over the pan and letting it air dry, then washing it with hot soapy water will brighten your pans nicely.

Cast iron skillets and frying pans
For your cast iron skillets and frying pans, coat them with oil and bake them at three hundred degrees for about half an hour to keep them in top shape. But, be careful, leave them in the oven until they cool so that you don’t burn yourself or your counters!
