What say Bittogers. I have a 12 year old electric oven with a squeaky oven door. Anyone get rid of the squeak with something that doesn’t stink when it gets hot? Thanks.

GE states "If the door squeaks as it is opened or closed, a small amount of non-flammable silicone grease lubricant spray (not an aerosol) can be applied to the hinge." Another recommendation that I saw is WD-40 300g Specialist High Performance Silicone Lubricant
I'd use a food safe silicone grease as suggested above. The bacon grease will have salt which may corrode things. Maybe if you have pure lard ?

They were at 113 F. Not close to oven temp but still warm.
Thanks, I guess that would include common brake assembly grease.
So here’s how far I made it. With the door off ( straight pull) and door on I used my silicone paste brake lube and used a Q tip to coat the pivot point and any metal sliding sections. It was way better but still had a squeak on the right side hinge. I believe there is a spring inside, so I got out a 35 year old can of Prestone Silicone spray and gave out a few shots. Made it a bit better but there is still a slight squeak when the door approaches full open.
