I put absolutely EVERYTHING (except my cast iron skillet, which I use about twice a year) in the dishwasher. Sometimes I'll give the burned-on areas a little scrub with a restaurant-style stainless steel pot scrubber if I want to use the shorter Normal or Insta-Wash cycles.
If time is no object, I'll bypass scrubbing and use the Heavy Wash cycle in conjunction with the Tough Scrub Plus and 160-degree wash options. It takes about 2 hrs. 20 minutes, but everything comes out sparkling. I have softened water, which helps.
