    Try soaking it with a solution of water and dishwasher detergent (the kind that goes in the dishwasher, that is.) After a while, that should help.

    No suggestion for cleaning it, but have you used the crock pot liners. They are wonderful.

    Put water and some Arm & Hammer baking soda in the pot, then put your slow cooker on cook for a few hours. LOVE that baking soda. Gets all sorts of baked on stuff off. I don't keep dryer sheets in the house because of the scent, but that sounds like an interesting fix. Good luck!

    My daughters made a cake in my cast iron skillet and cooked it in the fire when we were camping. I almost wrung necks before we got it clean. The next time they lined the pan with foil.

    done that also! they are also good for cleaning the toilet bowl.

    seems to me, i have heard of using ammonia,putting the pan,or in your case the crock, in a plastic garbage bag, and setting it outside for a day or so.

    if you have scratched the crock, i would be concerned about the burnt smell getting on other food.

    Try using a Mr. Clean eraser. It always works for me.

    Try straight lemon juice. The dryer sheet method sounds like it might work as well. My boss puts fabric softner on baking pans with cooked on grease/food, let is soak and off it comes.
