Binder

[Kevin DeShazo]

So experimenting with using bacon fat as a binder tomorrow for a cpl pieces of tri tip. I normally dont use a binder for tri tip, but can of bacon fat is calling name. Anyone else tried this before, any good or bad results with it?

I've basted ribs, chicken and turkey with bacon grease with great results. I can't see how you can go wrong with it on beef

I have been using beef tallow as a binder for tritip and steaks lately. I like it a lot. I think bacon fat would be awesome.

You can cook veggies in it, wipe your pits down with it and apparently you can even grease your hair down with it. Sounds pretty cool. Might start doin' that.

Can't go wrong with bacon grease, should be very good!!

Nothing wrong with bacon grease for sure, makes excellent food. I prefer duck fat most the time, not all the time, but both are excellent.

Sounds great but if you have any problems with it, I would be glad to be a taster for you.

I've only used bacon fat on poultry with great results.
