I swear by dishwashing (NOT dishwasher) liquid - whatever you use (Palmolive, Sunlight, Dawn) will work.  Rub it into the spot and voila!  My mom used to do this when I was a kid and it's all we use to remove stains from clothes...it's even removed red wine from my white tablecloth.

I use something called Sunshine Concentrate, which is not readily available, but I think I've heard that Murphy's Soap (for wood) takes grease out also.

Rub shampoo into the grease stain and launder in the hottest water the fabric will stand.  You might have to do this 2 or 3 times but shampoo is designed to clean greasy hair after all and will work.

Help, 

I dripped melted  ???butter on my red sweat shirt and now I have a grease spot that I have not been able to get out. What works?
