I suspect a degreaser like Simple Green would do the trick
just fine, just be sure to rinse very, very thoroughly. You
might want to a mild bristle brush to scrub it out; I use
this Circulon brush -

Some folks suggest cleaning out a smoker with Simple
Green after smoking fish to avoid fishy taste and odor
in food later smoked.
