I use a propane torch, or plumber's torch if you will. They are inexpensive plus you do not have to worry about overheating and annealing.

Once hot, I use a cold water hose to shock the metal. You can literally hear the bonded rust breaking apart. The use of Kroil and or PB Blaster for an overnight soak will help also.
