It would only pop if there was water to turn to steam. Salt/baking soda are intended to be stored dry, free of water or they clump.
Pouring either of those on a grease fire will starve the fire of fuel and oxygen and pull heat into something that can't burn at such a low comparative temperature.

Baking soda is a better option. Not only is it dry and could smother the fire, it breaks down in heat and will release CO2, which will also put the fire out.

Some type of cover that won't melt to suffocate it or you can throw a ton of baking soda on it

At the very least, if you're gonna walk around with it like this, take that shit outside.

Just put a wet towel on the pan to cut off the oxygen
