Melissa, older ovens that weren't self-cleaning used to recommend putting a bowl with ammonia in them to sit overnight before cleaning and I thought that sounded stupid, until my daughter told me to soak paper towels in ammonia and place them on my stove top and then take a large plastic bag and masking tape and seal the ammonia fumes in over night. Then the next morning take a sudsy non scratchy scrubber and the burnt on grease will scrub right off. I would think you could open your oven door and put the ammonia towels on and seal with plastic over night and have the same results.
