    Oh God, do people do that? Shouldn’t do that with any pan.

    Toss a cup of water in the pan to deglaze it and scrape any crap up with your cooking tool. Dump the water in the sink and use some paper towels to wipe out any loose stuff.

    This might be enough to clean it, but if not once it’s cool clean as appropriate. If it’s carbon or cast iron, reheat to cook off any water and wipe with a drop of oil you bring to smoking.

    Inevitably leave on the stove until you need to use it next instead of putting it away properly.
