I used the wife's good casserole dish to make some mac & cheese (http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/king-ranch-chicken-mac-cheese) Problem is, it got all smoked up in the egg and is now a *&^% to clean. Any suggestions?

Try some vinegar with your soap. Bar Keepers Friend helps too, but depends on the dish.------------------------------

Beg for forgiveness, buy her a new one and use the old one on the egg.Danville, Il

soap, hot water, let it sit soaking over night while drinking a favorite beverage, and wipe it clean in the morning
why work at it

Soak, then a good scrubbing with an SOS sponge/scrub pad.LBGE 2015 - Atlanta

Or you can try submerging in boiling/simmering water. I simmer water to release tough stains and leftovers in the Le Creuset.LBGE 2015 - Atlanta

I don't know if this would get foul in an egg or not, but when backpacking, I've always rubbed a little bit of liquid soap on the outside of my cooking pot before using it each time and the black from the fire or the stove wipes right off afterward.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER -
I've read that on here many times. It apparently works well on the egg, but I haven't tried it.Legume said:I don't know if this would get foul in an egg or not, but when backpacking, I've always rubbed a little bit of liquid soap on the outside of my cooking pot before using it each time and the black from the fire or the stove wipes right off afterward.
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

I oil the outside first. Same concept.

Put pots in a garbage bag with cup of vinegar (in a open container resting in bag). Close bag and let sit overnight. Should work.

Tell your wife about it, and let her know it better be clean by the time you get home from work.
Oh yeah, and please video tape her response.

Easy-Off Oven Cleaner does a good job on stains and baked on stuff.

Simple Green works well. My wife lets me use her big pyrex dish for beans. No soap that I tried would make a dent but SG will melt it right off.

Soak overnight in water heavily laced with dishwasher detergent (not dish detergent but the stuff you put in the dishwasher). Works like a dream. If you use tablets, get a small bottle of liquid for these types of kitchen challenges.*******Owner of a large and a beloved mini in Philadelphia

Well played.
It's funny how that smoke film only attaches to the good dishes and not to disposable pans. I did the same thing to a new lasagna pan. It cleaned up finally after soaking overnight as other's mentioned. Still took some scrubbing with a scotchbrite pad. Since then I've been a fan of disposable.

similiar mishap years ago using my wife's grandmother's heavy duty cake pan. To this day I have never been able to clean it up. Cost me $18 to replace a stupid cake pan, but now I have a heavy duty drip pan that won't collapse on me! LOL
Re-gasketing the USA one yard at a time -
Take some baking soda and vinegar and few drops of dawn - make a paste and cover the pan - let it react a bit and then start wiping - works like a charm!!!

Buy her two upgrades, keep the ruined one as suggested above, ladies love two for one deals.
