rearrange

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'change in order' is the definition.
'rearrange' can be an answer for 'order' (I've seen this before). I'm not certain of the 'change in' bit.

'get back to the stove' is the wordplay.
'get' says to put letters next to each other.
'back' becomes 'rear' (something's rear is its back).
'to the stove' becomes 'range' ('range' can be a synonym of 'stove').
'rear' put next to 'range' is 'REARRANGE'.

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rearrange that I've seen before include "Put new structure" , "Move to new positions" , "Adjust" , "Rear anger (anag.)" , "Give another order" .)
