Knowing what is stuck on there, or at least the material it is made of, would go a long ways towards getting advice on how to remove it.

If that's the case, easiest way is to simply drive.....it will burn/melt off.

If there's a lot stuck to it, use a plastic scraper (like for spreading bondo or drywall mud) to get most off, then take a long drive, getting the exhaust nice and hot.
