Bacon Grease

"That is exactly how we do it. We have 2 containers in the fridge. One for good bacon grease, and one for all other kinds of grease that you don’t want to put down the drain.
Al"

Bacon grease is the only grease we reuse. Everything else gets sopped up with paper towels and junked.

I have to wonder how they make it. Maybe from cooking bacon for salad toppings?

Hope so. Either that or it's made like they make wannabe meat products.

I got a can in the freezer for pork, another for beef, another for lamb. Very handy and free. Also have a jar of rendered beef tallow which is in the study.

I keep a can next to the stove for bacon drippings. I call it 'Bacon Oil' when I use it. Sounds classier that way☺

How does it differ from lard? Basically just pork fat either way?

Yeah, from scraps they got tired of throwing away.....

Hopefully they use the grease from the pre-cooked bacon you find in the stores

I sop up excess grease in newspaper and use it to fire my charcoal chimney

An Amish run store near me sells bacon grease. Started saving my own and it’s great to cook with.

Womens' perfume. My wife often says I'd pay more attention to her if she smelled like bacon.

Pretty much - this is off thier website.

Also, they're looking to expand production of their 3-gallon bucket this year if you're already planning your deep fried turkey for thanksgiving.

Reminds me of the Taco Bell Bacon Club Chalupa ad they ran back in the early 2000's

I love it and save mine always. I want to start doing the beef tallow like someone posted yesterday too.

that was crankybuzzard on the tallow. We just don't cook bacon very often to accumulate any amounts of grease.
