It sounds like you might have the heat up either too high (nonstick) or not high enough (stainless).
Start with a teaspoon or so of fat and add more by the half teaspoon or so as needed; you can always put more in if it looks like it's gonna scorch, but you can't remove fat you've already added.
When scorching occurs, nothing solves the problem better than an overnight soak with a little dishsoap added.
