Mine were. I had to drain the grease off and didn't know where to put it.
I no longer keep a grease can. I ended up using a microwaveable casserole.
I bought a 2 pack but the first one cracked when I froze it. So I decided I
didn't need the other. It was a single serve so about 8 oz. The thing was
full from 12 sausages. Of course some of that was water. But there was a
LOT of grease!
