I accidentally dropped a plastic Tupperware container on a hot electric stove top burner.The plastic melted instantly and is now stuck-molded onto the black metal grate. I've tried scraping it off, to no avail.ust remove as much plastic as possible while it is still pliable, then turn the burner on high and burn off the remaining residue. Step 4 Working with gas burners, it may be easier to remove the plastic in the sink, with hot water and a scratch pad.
