For porcelain coated drip pans that are removable, I put them in a garbage
bag, spray with oven cleaner, and close the bag. After sitting all night, I
remove them and rinse. For parts of the stove that aren't removable, I
carefully spray them with oven cleaner, cover with plastic to prevent them
from drying, and leave for several hours or over night.
