Soak in water with a capful of fabric softener.

I clean almost everything with fabric softener.

Search google for uses for fabric softener and you'll get great ideas.

Make a hot solution of gel-auto dishwasher detergent and water and find a
glass or plastic tub big enough for your lid,and soak the lid in the
solution for a couple of hours. If you can keep it hot or warm the whole
time,that's better.

If the metal band is stainless steel and not aluminum,just use Easy-OFF
oven cleaner,as directed on the label.

You're getting an awful lot of "try this" responses! COuld probably buy a
couple of complete sets for the price of the various things suggested if
you don't have them hanging around.

What the hell. Here's a couple of more.
        Greased Lightning with a plastic scour pad.
        Carburator cleaner.

Bury it in the yard for a month. That will de-grease
almost anything.

If it will fit in a crock pot with a bit of laundry detergent then that
will work fine.
