2.5 gallons of bear tallow

Helped my friend process it yesterday. He gave me all the meat. Cut pretty big chunks out. About 2x2” cubes or so. Took about 5 hours, the part I’m touching is his lower back above his tail, that’s where the majority of the fat was

I’m curious, what do you do with all that tallow?

use instead of vegetable oil or canola oil

Interesting. I make and use a good bit of beef tallow and lard from pork fat. How does yours compare?

I haven’t used any yet. I keep my bacon grease which works very well for me. I’ll let you know soon. I actually made blt’s the other day used about 1 pound of bacon while this was brewing and I dumped the bacon grease into the pot lol
