Default Stinky Disposall

a plumber told me once that running hot water with disposer on might cause
motor to overheat.

The Disposall (Disposer?) in my kitchen sink has a terminal case of
"buzzard breathe". Running the thing while running hot water through it
doesn't help a whole lot. Any suggestions?

Here is a site for care and feeding/cleaning of your disposal:

It is important to avoid using warm or hot water to wash down garbage, as
hot water will melt fat and grease and redeposit it on the working parts,
adding to smells.
