The only thing worse than finding a pair of filthy, fermented sports socks under my boys’ beds is cleaning out my oven.
Truly.
At times it seems I would rather scrub my face with those foul socks than get down on my knees and approach the square abyss to scrap off (with a butter knife ,mind you) my misfired casserole. Or worse, trying to remember to clean my oven when it’s cold. But when my nostrils flair with scorched sugar and black smoke is puffing out my door like a peace pipe,I am pathetically reminded of my folly.
Cleaning my oven seems to take too much time and energy, literally. If I use the self-cleaning furnace version, my kitchen temperature and electric bill sky rocket! Or the Armageddon- worthy gas mask I must use with an oven-cleaner spray is ridiculous or maybe it’s just me who looks ridiculous; clad in gloves to my shoulders, clothed by a radon proof apron, wearing a mask to securely close any open orifices.
I scare myself.
With all this oven drama in my world, I’ve avoided baking some of my favorite recipes for fear of the inevitable “obnoxious oven cleaning” scenario previously described;
however, with the LG EasyClean™ Double Oven Range, all of this mayhem in my kitchen could have been avoided!
If I had one of these, I would just spray a little water, turn on the self -cleaning function of the oven and 20 minutes later I’m ecstatic, “My oven is clean!”
Impressive.
I could have more time with my family, more time to bake in the oven and more time to find those stinkin’ socks!
Now, could LG just invent a machine that will deep clean my house that fast as well?
Baked Sweet Yams with Jalapeño Butter and Maple Bacon
This is an incredibly easy recipe to bake in the oven, but also one of the messiest which I why I stopped making it for my family.
I just couldn’t take any more singed yam sugar or bacon grease splattered indefinitely on my oven walls and floor.
Even when I took the necessary precautions using aluminum foil, somehow a drip of sugar or smattering of bacon grease would escape my carefully crafted plan.
Since the new LG EasyClean oven can clean up in 20 minutes any foiled plans of mine to keep my oven clean, I can bake yams and pies, bacon and brimful casseroles with reckless- ladylike abandon.
Ingredients
4-6 yams, 1 per person
2 Tablespoons oil
1 Tablespoon red vinegar
2 avocados, sliced
1 medium red onion, diced or thinly sliced
3 stalks green onion, thinly sliced on 45° angle
4-6 radishes, finely diced
Maple Bacon
1 pkg. of thick-cut bacon
2 Tablespoons maple syrup
Jalapeño Butter
4- 6 Tablespoons butter, softened – you’re call on how much per yam…
2 Jalapeños , minced
1 small red pepper, minced
Handful of fresh cilantro, loosely diced
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400°F. Wash and scrub the yams. Rub the skin with a light coating of oil and prick with a fork.
Place on a piece of aluminum foil on the lower 2/3 rack in the oven.
Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until soft when squeezed with an oven mitt.
In the meantime, line a jelly roll pan (a sheet pan with a lip) with aluminum foil,
place the bacon strips on the pan to bake during the last 20 minutes of the yam’s cooking time on the upper 1/3 rack in the oven.
When the bacon is almost done (2 minutes remaining), remove the pan from the oven and lightly spread maple syrup on the bacon pieces, (one side is sufficient).
Place the bacon pan back in the oven to caramelize the maple syrup for a couple of minutes.
Remove from the oven, allow to rest and cool slightly, then with kitchen scissors, cut into pieces.
Slice, dice and mince the remaining ingredients.
Drizzle the avocado, radishes and red onions with a splash of red vinegar.
In a separate bowl, combine the butter, jalapeño, red pepper and a little cilantro together.
Pulling it all together is a delicious snap. Make a slice in the yam, push up the flesh,
add a dollop of jalapeño butter for a little heat to balance the natural sweetness of the yams.
Then mound on green and red onions for subtle flavor,
radishes for a piquant crunch and avocados for a smooth, cooling essence.
Finally bring it back around -full circle now- to sweet,
with shards of savory, sugary maple bacon and a sprinkle of cilantro.
Ya, BABY! Like I said, one of our favorites. Enjoy.

Monkey bread!!!!!!! messy messy messy….Wow, we would love a new oven, thanks for the chance!! 🙂
Amanda D says
While it shouldn’t make my oven messy – apple pie is one of my favorite recipes that does accomplish just that. I always seem to fill the pie crust too full of filling goodness and it drips out of the pie plate – and sometimes off of the cookie sheet we put under the plate.
We could really use a new oven, too. The door of ours won’t even close all the way any more and it’s about 15 years old.
Ronda M says
I would love to win a LG EasyClean™ Double Oven Range!

My favorite recipe that leaves my oven a hot mess is my Puerto Rican Pork Shoulder. It is so flavorful, juicy, tender and just AMAZING!!!
12 pound pork shoulder
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
8 oz jar of minced garlic
1/2 cup fresh ground pepper
2 packets Sazon with pepper
1/8 cup adobo
Place pork shoulder into an roasting pan. With a knife poke slits all over the pork shoulder, then pour the white vinegar on all over the pork shoulder. In a small bowl mix minced garlic and pepper together, then stuff each slit on the pork shoulder with garlic pepper mix. Next, rub the pork shoulder with the olive oil. Then, sprinkle the Sazon and adobo all over the pork shoulder. Cover with alluminum foil. Place in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 4 hours, I usually allow it to rest overnight.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Once preheated cook uncovered for 30 minutes. Then reduce heat to 325 and cover pork shoulder with aluminum foil. Cook for about 4 hours, or until meat thermometer reads 185°. Let rest for 30 minutes. Then cut and ENJOY!!

Just baking sweet potatoes leaves my oven a mess. Every time they leak no matter how many times I wrap the foil around them. Then they leak all over in the fridge (I’m a bulk baker). And no, I haven’t learned from the bazillion times this has happened because I continue to do it!

amy miller says
the messiest dish in my oven is when I tried to make taco soup in my dutch oven and put the whole thing in to bake the cheese on top, but I forgot the dutch oven lid. Somehow I had it boiling and suddenly had cheese, black beans, corn, and a ton of diced tomatoes all over my oven. Please send me a new one- still not wanting to bake in this one again!!!!

Now I am super hungry thinking about all the things I could make with this and my holidays might just be a little easier :O
Kailee g. says
Somehow every time we make homemade pizza, cheese always finds its way off the baking stone.
Kris Encarnacion says
Omg, I seriously hope I win! Our oven’s temp runs cold, so if you’re cooking something at 425 it really needs to be set to 445 or 450 to get the approximate temp. Makes baking an interesting experiment!
Kris Encarnacion says
This is what I get for reading and responding at 5 am lol. Not trying to count this as a double entry, just answering the question that i forgot to anawer originally. I totally forgot to answer the question – whenever I bake pies and muffins something will always spill over the edge and leave its ooey gooey goodness all over the grill and the bottom of the oven. Then it burns every time I cook until it finally just burns away (gawd forbid I remember to clean it before I cook again – I always forget until I smell it burning again. Doh!)
Becki Patton Teerlink says

When I was a less experienced cook (and really had no clue what I was doing) I had an apple pie ooze all over my oven. That was the absolute worst to clean up!!! I still love to make apple pie but now I know to vent it and put it on a cookie sheet, not directly on the oven rack. 🙂

pies seem to make the biggest mess when they cook over, but the most common mess is when my husband or son is cooking a frozen pizza – somehow they always dump toppings in the oven. I don’t have a self cleaning oven now so this LG EasyClean would be an absolute god send!!

Cherry Pie – it’s a no fail spill. 🙁
Kristin says
Lasagne always runs over in my oven, as do my homemade fruit pies. They are the worst, because they leave it so sticky.
Tina @ Squirrel Acorns says
Pies if you forget to put a tray underneath. All that sticky fruit syrup. Mmm…but oh so worth it. And I use a foil-lined tray and I’m good to go.
Kinsey says
I seem to have a hard time with pies bubbling over!

I love making sweet potato casserole but it never seems to fail that the marshmallows, added in the last minute, bubble over only in the times I don’t put a sheet underneath.
Barbara H says
The worst foods for making my oven a mess are broiling meats and fruit deserts. A new self-cleaning oven would be such a help!!
Lisa Marie Jensen says
Sticky buns!!! Yummy!
Trina says
I NEED this oven!!! What a great sweepstakes!
Cula Parker says
My all time favorite messy oven recipe is my oven baked lasagna. It covered in so much cheese and sauce that it bubbles and pops all over the place and makes my oven VERY messy. There’s is nothing worse than baked on tomato sauce and cheese.
Susan Clark says
Pies..pecan to be exact..
Julia says
These sweet potatoes look divine!!
Joanna says
I would love a double oven range. I always wish for one when the holidays come around and I’m trying to bake while making a large meal to celebrate. Thanks for the giveaway!
Laurel says
My favorite messy recipe is homemade pizza. We always put waaaaay too much stuff on top and it makes a mess. It’s worth it though. Yum!
Christine Long says
Wow – this oven would be great in my new kitchen!
Christine says
The one thing that the whole family likes is the messiest meal – LASAGNA!
Jenn Fox says
Chicken Pot Pie, or any other bubbly pie. I always have to put a pan underneath to catch the spillovers.
Kelly W says
Any yummy, fruity pie usually leaves my oven a mess!
Stephanie T. says
My messiest is blackberry pie. The juice always splatters out and bakes on to the bottom of the oven. But oh is it worth the pie!
Vanessa says
Pizza that I cook straight on the rack almost always falls through and starts burning on the bottom of the stove, then the smoke alarm goes off . . . oh so much fun!
Kimberly T. says
Hmm, I might have to give these yams a try since I was just trying to figure out what to do with the yams I got in my Bountiful Basket last week. Thank you!
As for making messes in the oven, it has to be my huckleberry pie. The filling inevitably boils over and the crust always seems to drip some grease while cooking. Not fun cleaning that up!
Kelli D says
ANY DISH with a lot of sauce that bubbles over…i.e. lasagna, fruit pies, forgotten chicken, and…bacon! That’s why a few years ago I invested in an oven liner just to make clean up a little easier! Now, if I could figure out a way to clean the inside door and window of the oven without having to use nasty chemical cleaners, that would be a plus! Then again, so would winning this LG EasyClean Double Oven!
Mindy says
bacon!!
Missy says
Pies always seem to run over and mess up the oven.
Stacey says
I make breaded pork chops which bake best directly on the oven racks so that they cook evenly on both sides. I’ve learned to do this with our microwave rack on a baking sheet, but it was a learning process!!

Rosemary Rivas says
I love making pies, particularly apple pies during the fall, using apples from my Granny Smith tree. Unfortunately it is not always easy to determine how juicy those apples are from year to year and what frequently happens is that the juice produced in making the pies boils over and spills onto the bottom of the oven. The oven I have now is old and is a “self-cleaning “which means it’s textured surface is extremely difficult to clean. Supposedly you can turn it up to a very high temperature, which I did once, but it didn’t do a very good job. I long for the ovens of the past that were smooth surfaces were easy to wipe up and it sounds like the manufacturers have come full circle and are returning to an easy-clean oven.
Theresa Sea says
I love baking pies, but sometimes they’ll bubble over (and I will have forgotten to put a baking sheet underneath)…what a mess!
Deanna Collins says
Oh wow! Those look so scrumptious! I love sweet potatoes and this looks like the best ever!
My worst spillover in my oven was when I attempted to bake sweet potatoes!! Believe it or not. What a mess and it stunk so bad! It took forever for the smell to leave!
melanie says
this oven is AMAZING!!! my hubby loves to cook bacon on a baking sheet…yummy, but it’s a mess!
Staci Langford says
Cooking bacon in the oven is the messiest food I make.
blima says
Lasagna always spills as does my stuffed cabbage
Sally C says
MMMMmmm, I just love yams and sweet potatoes. This sounds like a taste that I could dive right into. I’d have to admit though, I’d forgo putting the bacon in the oven. That mess I’d avoid at all costs. Maybe more like cook it in the micro then pop it in the oven with the syrup so no splatters. Gonna try this.
Wonder if LG would substitute a wall oven since I have one of those and a cooktop.
Dawn Molony says
When we let the little ones make their own pizza and there are always enough toppings to share some with the bottom of the oven.
Lisa J says
I would love this win this oven for my best friend

Cori says
I have a way of making everything messy when I am cooking :). Roast chicken always leaves my oven a greasy mess!
Julianne says
One of my favorite recipes that leaves our oven messy is acorn squash with brown sugar and butter. The brown sugar something gets on the bottom of the oven and burns and is really sticky and gross!

This recipe looks divine! It would definitely be worth cleaning my oven. For some reason, glazed salmon always makes a mess for me. Not quite sure why. It should be pretty easy, right?

It never fails that my berry or peach cobblers always overflow and drip down the sides of the baking dish, making the worst sticky messes in my oven.

The messiest thing I make in the oven is probably pie. So much so that I haven’t made one in a while.

It happens most with Lasagna, from the browing on the meat on the stove top to the baking process in the oven! I hate getting melted cheese in the oven!
Margot C says
OMGoodness yes! the singed sugar of a yam; I know all about this! For us how about the summer ritual of the lattice laced blackberry pie with it’s tiny eruptions of molten berry/sugar/corn starch mixture – it’s a killer.

The initial download of Zombie Farm is definitely worth more than nothing, but you can get it free of charge.
Rosalind Elder joined up as one of the early recruits,
even thogh by her own admission, she had no idea what the work was going to entail.
Although this is probably one of the main source of expenditure,
having adequate number of farm hands will ensure
proper breeding and maintenance of the farm.
