I used my Smokenator for the first time this weekend to smoke a brisket. The the results were outstanding and we all were surprised that it was done two hous before expected! The problem is that I was using apple juice in the water pan and it went dry on me, leaving a burnt crusty residue on the botton of the pan - about 1/2 thick. I have soaked the pan to not avail. Any ideas how to clean it out??

Try using a little oven cleaner.

Any ideas how to clean it out?? Use water Drink the beer. Drink the wine. Put the spices on the meat. Just use hot water. Don't waste your money. Many of the compounds in these other liquids will not evaporate and even if they do, they just make no impact on flavor. You may be able to smell them, but the number of flavor molecules in beer, wine, or juice are so few that even if they were deposited on the surface, they would be spread out so thin you would never notice them. The flavors of the spice rub you put on the surface of the meat, the smoke, and the sauce you chose, are much much stronger and will mask any molecules of apple juice or whatever else is in the pan that might alight on the meat. www.amazingribs.com/tips_and_technique/what_goes_in_the_water_pan.html
