I can only use Tide in my house because of Hubbies soap allergies. I have found that rubbing in straight Tide works pretty good. When hubby worked for a company that revamped old cement mixers for resale he came home with really nasty thick black grease all over everything. If the Tide didn't soak it out, Simple Green seemed to do the trick. I have found that straight dawn is really good too. I hope this helps!
Treat to stain as soon as possible.
I like soilove the best for oily greasy stains, I purchased mine on Amazon.
Try Fells Napha Soap. Wet a small brush like a fingernail brush. Scrub the area. Let sit an hour. Then wash as usual.
Not really sure this is a hack, but it has never failed for me. If your clothing is machine washable, treat the grease stain with a healthy amount of Dawn dishwashing detergent. If the grease has been dried in, let the clothing soak overnight with just the Dawn on it - do not soak in water. Wash on the hottest temperature the clothing can withstand. Good luck!

Just like dishes, clothes with grease respond to Dawn and other dishwashing liquids. Pour some directly on the stain, rub, let sit, then wash.
Elaine, I hope it works!
