Fill with hot water and let soak, or speed it up and boil the water on the stove

I use liquid dawn and fill up the pot or pan (or put it in your sink) with HOT water. Let it soak for a while. You can check every once in a while to see if has loosened up by rubbing it with your finger (or a utensil if the thought of using your finger grosses you out). If it comes off easily, then you can start washing it, if it dosen't, let it soak more. If you start washing it and there are some tough spots, refill it with more soap and HOT water and let it soak for a little longer. It shouldn't take too long...I have never had to wait more than 20 minutes for it to work for me.

There is a great product called "Dawn Dish Scrub" it's in a small blue spray bottle at most stores that sell dish detergent. All you do is spray it and let it sit for a minute and the gunk wipes off. I've even used it on oil/grease stained pots and it works.

Ok - this is going to sound VERY odd but if you want to stay away from chemicals follow this!;
In a pan, place 1.5 cups of coca cola.
Boil on the stove for approz 15 mins - pour out coke, leave to stand 1-2 mins and wipe clean!
Cheap and easy - you can also drink the left over coke in the bottle!

I boil water with baking soda to loosen cooked-on food. On the exterior, I used Soft Scrub (with bleach) on a Teflan/rubber sponge scrubbie. I hang my pans, including the copper ones, on a decorative pan rack so that everyone can see them so they have to look good! And I do get compliments on my pans!

If it's a really thick layer, fill the pot with water and boil it with a little vinegar. You have to watch it. After a while the whole layer will rise off. Smells though.
Alternatively you could scrub with steel wool and lots of scouring powder.

Dish WASHER powder NOT a liquid like Dawn...put it in the offending pan with hot water..let it sit over night and you should be able to get it off with a dishcloth in the AM......

Put them in the sink and spray them down with oven cleaner then rinse them off in the morning. Do it more than once if its bad. No need to scrub if you dont have too.
Oh ya the one above is right. If its not bad just soak in warm water for awhile.

Simply soak them in the hottest water possible for an hour and then use SOS pads to scrub them clean. That should do it.
Good luck to you!
