I bought Grease bullet tablets a few months ago and just now got
around to using it. Sorry I bothered.

The skillet I use almost every day has gotten pretty groady so I
thought I'd experiment with it.

No difference

I'll try again but double the dose.

Hmm.... I wonder what the "ingredients" are for that 'grease bullet' -
not that it matters much at this point -- unless they're the very same
or similar to that of dishwasher machine detergent (sodium carbonate,
sodium silicate & enzymes).

One trick you might want to try is to mix a quarter-cup (more or less?)
or regular, generic dishwasher machine detergent in that dishpanful of
hot water until the detergent disolves. Then soak the skillet for some
amount of time (unknown variable). This trick (dishwasher detergent +
water) works well to remove wallpaper too, when carefully applied with a
spray bottle <g>. There's something about those "enzymes."

Alas, in the long run, it may take a lot of 'elbow grease' with some
steel wool to make that skillet ungroady. Good luck.

I hate to followup my own posts!

Koko, I just noticed from one of your photos that the skillet is
copper-bottomed, not all s/s. Try soaking the bottom of the skillet in
some very salty hot water for a rather short bit of time (half-hour?).
I know it's brought back the 'brightness' of my copper pans & skillets.
Someone here on RFC recommended that to me - I think it was Chris
The dishwasher detergent trick might work too.

Thanks jay, hopefully I can find some someplace I don't have to buy a

Try the industrial "purple" degreaser by Zep, which can be found at
Depot. Use it at one of the stronger dilutions. It took the baked on
commercial kitchen grease off my Hobart mixer quite nicely. Wear gloves
when using it as it will take the flesh off your hands as well if you
aren't careful.

Methyl alcohol will take care of that buildup with no sweat.

Castrol Super Clean strips off just about anything. It contains 2-
Butoxyethanol, which is nasty stuff, best used outside, and somewhere
I think I read that California had banned its use, but it is mega
powerful. Don't use it without gloves, as it has sodium hydroxide and
sodium metasilicate, both of which will burn your skin.

Yeah. Those things are junk. I bought them and they don't do a thing.

If that's a stainless steel pan, you can use oven cleaner on it and it
should remove every trace of burnt on grease. Spray it thoroughly and put
it in a plastic bag. Let it sit for several hours or overnight before
washing.

If it's aluminum, do *not* use oven cleaner.
