Now you finally have something useful you can make with all those annoying little soap slivers. You don't have to throw them out anymore, make an all purpose kitchen cleaner! With a few minutes and virtually no cost, you can have a bottle full of de-greaser ready to go. Re-duce, re-use, go green! :)

Steps:

  1. As you can see, I opted for intact fingers and chose to chop the soap with a knife. The pieces are just too small. :)

Trying it on my stove top, I had to use 2 applications to clean the spatters of grease off. I hope it works better on the BBQ!
