I render fat from the 1/4 cow I buy which is 100% grass fed and finished. I highly recommend it. Ask the butcher to save it for you. Perfect to cook with and lasts and lasts. I freeze the extra in mason jars. We go through it fast. Sometimes I'll cook with coconut oil, avocado oil and EVOO. I make my own beauty products with the tallow as well. The more we can teach ourselves to do the more we can avoid buying the crap that is being mass produced by people who do not care about you! Love sharing with like minded people. Thanks Jenny!
My husband is working on rendering fat and I am OBSESSED with tallow on my skin. I bought a tallow deodorant at my farmer's market yesterday--it smells amazing (who knew?). A super cute young gal started the company (www.motherfocare.com if anyone's curious--she'll ship anywhere!) What else do you make with it???
Tallow for roasting/frying beef and pork fat for roasting /stir-frying veg, that's the absolute bee's knees!
(The easiest way to render tallow is by chopping it up and leaving it in a low slow oven in the baking tray, and just pouring it off from time to time as it renders.)
We buy from a group that supplies grass fed/finished beef, pasture raised chickens and heritage pigs. I'm not sure if they have the fat available but I'm definitely going to see if I can find someone to buy it from. There's a non-woke Canadian company that sells the tallow face cream (F-balm) https://thetallowedtruth.com Great ideas! Thanks for sharing Patti.
