Here's a quick added tip: Collect the bacon grease in one jar, with all the little brown bits. Store it in the refrigerator.
Then, when the jar is full, place the jar of cold bacon fat, uncovered, in a pot on the stove with about two inches of
water, and heat it slowly on the stove top until it is again melted, golden and lovely. Then, place either a coarse
coffee filter, or, in a pinch, a single white kitchen paper towel, into your kitchen strainer, and pour the bacon grease
into the filter, allowing it to flow into a second, clean jar. When it has all flowed through ( and it will take about ten
minutes for it to all finish dripping, ) cover the new jar of clean bacon grease and put it back into the fridge.
When it hardens into a soft, white paste about the consistency of Crisco vegetable shortening, you have your perfect
cooking fat. You can fry eggs, saute vegetables, even use it instead of olive oil or butter. Use it for cooking Hash
Browns, or French Toast. MMMMM. And, since you would otherwise be throwing it away, it is essentiallly FREE !
Oh yeah - Corn Bread Muffins made with Bacon Grease instead of oil or shortening - pure heaven !
WOW!! I can't wait to try this out. Thank you for watching and commenting and the great tip.
Keep in touch my friend.
It works far better if you leave the fat solid. Just remove it from the fridge and use a spoon to pull off the nice white fat and leave the junk in the bottom layer. Then* reheat it
It IS NOT unhealthy. It is VERY healthy.
That is something more more people seem to be saying nowadays as we are finding out more and more about the everyday peanut oils and other oils that we use that maybe the healthier choice is the natural greases from me and oils. I am actually learning right now how to do tallow because I have a friend that owns a barbecue business and it gives me access to tons and tons of smoked brisket fat. And recently I've been using the brisket fat to oil My Pan before I do any kind of cooking like stir fry or hash browns or eggs it gives it a really good flavor and it's pretty much free.

From about the 1970s people were psyopped with disinfo propaganda against fat.
I was just explaining this to my husband.
Agreed. Natural fats are far better than seed oils.
Oil from tree fruits are okay too. Olive, coconut, avocado, palm.
It's not unhealthy at all!
That's the kind of fat we were made to eat!
Bacon grease is a great alternative fat in biscuits and cornbread.
That sounds interesting I have never made cornbread before but I know a lady had made me some one day and she put honey in it and it was so good. The honey gave it a good sweet taste. Now you have me thinking about making some. Thank you for watching and commenting Monica. Hit the subscribe and keep in touch my friend.
Not unhealthy better for you then vegetable oil.
More than "not unhealthy" its actually extremely healthy. More omegas than fish and no mercury
That is what I've been hearing more and more from different people. I have recently started using beef tallow which is kind of like bacon grease but it's made with beef and I use smoked brisket beef fat so it has an incredible taste when you use it to cook a lot of different dishes.

Considering the same process, I let the grease cool-down somewhat, then filter the grease through a coffee filter into a jar.
When the grease cools will it still flow through the coffee filter with ease I would think the cooler it gets the harder it is to flow through a filter I will probably have to try that out I've never used the filter yet. Thank you for watching and commenting. I hope you have a great long weekend my friend.
Actually bacon fat is healthy for you, as is beef fat and chicken fat. Vegetable oils will kill you.
Absolutely
More and more evidence is coming out to this fact vegetable oil is poison butter and animal fat is healthy in the old days we didn't have the obesity and diabetes as we do today
@@stevecarter2463 true.
Thanks for this video! My Aunt Rosa makes the most scrumptious refried beans and she told me the secret is bacon lard! Can't wait to try this.
That sounds really good. Definitely hit the subscribe button and let me know how it came out and keep in touch my friend. Thank you for watching and commenting SuzyBear Heart.
Thanks Tsquare! Now I can make my CLEAN bacon grease! Anyone who hasn't used bacon grease in cooking definitely needs to try it! You are missing out!!
1Grizzman I know i love it. The flavor that carries over with the grease is just amazing. And then when I get too much bacon grease and don't know what to do with it I move it to my barbecue pit and use it as lighter fluid. It's funny because then my fire starts to smell like bacon.
@@TsquareTalk I never heard that about bacon grease. I have made candles from Crisco. Never thought to apply that to bacon grease. Wild huh?
Im Mexican and i refry my beans in bacon gold nector. I 💯 percent recommend!
🇲🇽 Ohhh WOW! Mexicans definitely know how to cook, I remember in 2019 Mexicans won Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals at that year's Culinary World Cup in Luxemburg. I've never used bacon grease with refried beans. But I bet it would be awesome because it would carry that bacon flavor over into the beans I can't wait to try this out the next time I do something with refried beans. Thank you so much for watching and commenting especially Romero because I think that's a great tip that a lot of people probably never even thought of.

I'm looking at either Mexico City or Puerto Vallarta.
It looks great. I'm going to attempt this today, thank you for sharing. It's healthier than we were all led to believe!
thank you yeah I've always used bacon grease but recently I've actually switched to beef tallow it seems like a healthier option but it still maintains that great taste. If you've never heard of beef Tallow I recommend you look into some videos on it and the health benefits of it. Thank you so much for watching and commenting Micah🙂. Please take a quick minute just to hit that subscribe button it helps the channel more than you know.👍
My brother and his wife use the beef tallow & really like it. I'm sure I've had it as a kid at my grandparents house. I rendered out the bacon grease today & it looks good. I've been changing my diet little by little, trying to find healthy alternative for processed sugar that tastes good currently. Take care.
@@Wisdomseeker_777 sounds like you're making some great decisions processed sugars are probably the worst for people as their bodies really don't know how to digest them or process it therefore it just tends to add weight. But yes both bacon grease and beef Tallow are delicious especially in the morning with like eggs to cook your eggs in or to cook your potatoes in and it's a whole lot cheaper because normally you would just be throwing it away. Definitely keep in touch.
For the record, bacon grease is NOT "unhealthy". Lard, tallow, butter are the healthy animal fats.
Yeah I've heard a lot of people say that It definitely makes the food taste better all that crap they put in everything now artificial preservatives and stuff It's ridiculous I mean think about what that does to the body. I wonder if preservatives really ever break down or if they just get tangled up into your body and preserve the body fat. But beef tallow that's all natural. But today you can't trust their science 99% of scientists agree with whoever is paying them. Thank you so much for watching and commenting I hope you have a great weekend my friend.
It's not unhealthy it a healthy fat. great for keto. It's an animal fat which is a good fat
That's good to know I've actually switched though from bacon grease fat to cooking with beef tallow. I've actually just finished making up a video on how to make beef Tallow super inexpensive by getting the brisket fat scraps from your local barbecue restaurant. That beef Tallow carries an incredible flavor with it and I have heard that beef Tallow is healthier. Even to the point where more people used to use it in the old days until it got too expensive.

@@TsquareTalk Beef tallow is probably even better. Especially if it's 100% grass fed. I've seen they've been feeding pigs all kinds of crazy things in America, even plastic
Great video! Don't fall for the misinformation. Animal fats are extremely good for you.

I think I need to take a break from the comments for a while. I read that quickly as, “Animal *farts* are extremely good for you.” All I could think was, as a dog owner, I respectfully disagree with that statement.
@@michaeldoran4831 hahaha 😆
Lard is healthier than canola, corn, soy, sunflower oils, etc., basically what they call "vegetable oil". They are more accurately known as "seed oils." The seed oils are a cause of arterial inflammation due to their chemical structure. Lard is natural and is only risky if the user consumes large amounts of carbohydrates and seed oils along with it.
I never knew that I know we are hearing more and more that true lard bacon grease or beef tallow is not as bad for you as they would lead you to believe. I do find it strange though how it hardens up which kind of makes me wonder is that hardening up in your arteries. But then some might say no because it never goes into your arteries your body takes what it needs through the digestive liner in your stomach and on the way down. But you got me This is definitely not an area I'm an expert on. I just love cooking and I love eating and I can tell you frying some eggs or potatoes and a little bit of lard really taste good. Also if it's beef tallow it's inexpensive because you can pretty much get it for almost free at the barbecue shops. Thank you so much for watching and commenting Dave. Please be sure to keep in touch my friend.
@@TsquareTalk Just a quick reply on how arterial inflammation works… LDL cholesterol is not bad like they say. In fact, it is necessary for normal bodily functions. If we removed all of it from our body, we would die within minutes. Anyway, the “seed oils” oxidize normal healthy LDL. The particles, which should be light and buoyant, become small and relatively hard when they become oxidized due to over-consumption of seed oils (which are on the edge of rancidity when we swallow them). The small, dense LDL particles get embedded in the artery wall which causes inflammation. This signals blood cholesterol to come to the rescue by creating a sort of bandaid over the inflamed area. This “bandaid” is what they call plaque. But it’s trying to heal the “injury”, not clog your artery. It’s like every time we see a house on fire what else do we usually see? Firemen. But then the firemen (in my little story) get blamed for causing the fire. So… if there was not so much oxidizing seed oils in our systems we wouldn’t have half the artery inflammation we currently see. All cholesterol is normal, good, and healthy as long as we refrain from feeding ourselves oxidizing seed oils. They are a curse to the American diet.
bacon grease is scientifically proven to be a healthy fat, so it's guilt free. Ty for sharing Bye now
wow that is good to know. Thank you for watching and commenting marti adams.
Came here to say the same.
Depends what you're eating with it. If you're eating a bunch of processed carbs , nothing is good for you.
Bro that grease is so clean
Thank you Henry. I know it's super tasty take a little spoonful of it throw it in the skillet before cooking eggs or hash browns. I know that's what our grandparents did in the old days and it really does make the food taste a whole lot better. They say it's not healthy but lately everything is coming under question. So who really knows what's healthier bacon grease or corn oil.

Great tips. Thanks! Today’s my first day saving my bacon grease
So 5 months later now I'm really curious how it turned out for you I have actually started using beef Tallow now also which is basically smoked brisket fat that is cooked down and rendered into a grease or lard I will then use that for a lot of the same stuff I use the bacon grease for. Let me know your thoughts on how the bacon grease worked out. Thank you for watching and commenting Faub. Please take a quick minute to hit that subscribe button to help the channel out.
@@TsquareTalk I’ve kept the lard in the fridge and use it in place of oil or butter for some of the thing we make. It’s good stuff. I’ve been throwing this out for years!
That is very healthy especially if you are on a carnivore diet. Fry your meat in butter and bacon grease, you absolutley need that fat. Good vid
Thank you so much for watching and commenting mashosh 78. I recently have started using beef tallow which is kind of like bacon grease but it's beef fat cooked down into kind of like lard. It is what a lot of restaurants used to use in the old days kind of like McDonald's but I believe price of it got to be too high so they switched to the vegetable oil they say it was for health reasons but I don't believe it I don't think all that vegetable oil is good for us but I could be wrong and unfortunately I guess at the end of the day I'll have to answer for it. But there has to be a reason why nowadays everybody's getting sick and the common answer I would think would be there's something in the food that people of past generations didn't always use. I started reading a lot about the beef fat obviously I'm sure any fat is not 100% healthy for you but I'm guessing there are better fats than others. I can tell you beef tallow the way I make it comes out awesome. In fact I'm probably going to do a video on it now since we're talking about it.

One of the best fats as if is stable at room temperature and can withstand high heat frying without denaturing. If you want to know if bacon is healthy check out Ken Berry Md and his thoughts on bacon as part of a proper human diet.
I have never heard of him but I lately have been reading a lot about incorporating more meat in your diet as I know a few people that have gone carb-free and sugar-free and seem to be getting more healthier by the day. Thank you for watching and commenting Keith sorry to get back to you a little late I was sick for a few weeks and have not been able to catch up on all the comments. You have a great week my friend.
I hope you are feeling much better. I’m on my way to being full carnivore or ketovore at least. Lost 16 lbs and 2” off my belt in the last 9 months.
I apply pork lard on my hair and use it as my body oil, I have been doing this for over a year now!

Bacon grease and lard is healther than seed oils and vegetable or canola oil!
Yeah I actually believe that now It's crazy to think though because they make it sound like it's so bad for us but yet it's all that other process stuff that's really bad for us. Thank you for watching and commenting William.
Fried some bacon with refined coconut oil in the pan, then saved the grease in the fridge in a jar. About 3 weeks later it smelled F U N K Y. I'm guessing this is why one has to strain it?
I personally have never had that happen but it could also be that you mix the coconut oil with the bacon fat maybe. I've never used coconut fat because the bacon has plenty of fat. Out of curiosity I wonder if the bacon carried some of the coconut flavor because that would kind of be cool. I've left bacon grease in my fridge for months and never had a problem. Thank you for watching and commenting Snake_XIX
Rendering bacon grease makes it usable for all kinds of things. Even soap. :)
I only just recently heard of using it for soap I've been meaning to look into how to make soap because I have a connection where I can get pretty much unlimited beef fat. And someone had mentioned something to me about making soap with it. Currently I will use the bake fat to render it down on low heat until I get a beef tallow or beef fat. I jar it and put it in my pantry at room temperature and then I will use it on eggs potatoes but now I'd like to expand the usage. Thank you so much for watching and commenting Determined DIYer.

You may want to use lard made from less processed fat than this for soap, although I'm certain many people would like smelling like bacon! Have you used something like this in DIY soap?
Oh! That bacon looks so good. It's noon here and I haven't eaten anything. Good video tips. I never use my leftover bacon grease. I do love it crispy. Thanks for sharing. All the Best ~ Shirl

What about if I use a cast iron pan on low heat? Would I still be able to achieve the same result
Absolutely Nicole in fact when I do beef tallow I go to my local barbecue shop I asked them for the smoked brisket fat scraps it's almost free at 30 cents a pound. I put it in my cast iron skillet on low heat and let the grease melt down I then strain it and jar it. And then I scoop out what I need anytime I make eggs hash browns almost anything in a cast iron skillet. And if I use the bacon grease it carries that great bacon flavor and if I use the smoked brisket tallow it carries that smoked brisket flavor. If you've got any barbecue shops near you you should go there and just ask them if you can get some fat scraps for your dogs. Some places will just give it away others will charge two or three pounds for a dollar. Thank you so much for watching and commenting Nicole please be sure to keep in touch my friend.
You can further clarify this by bringing it to boil then low heat to simmer until the simmering stop then strain it
I believe you could keep in mind anything that has color or yucky will go to the bottom. Leaving you all the white grease or fat at the top. If you don't mind me asking what would be the purpose of purifying it even more or just what are your thoughts on why. Thank you for watching and commenting Fizbinsfire.
@@TsquareTalk I purify it further because I want the grease to be as clean as possible. You'd be surprised what more color/particulates that a coffee filter will take out. I usually do about a quart at a time, and then freeze it all in leftover yogurt containers. (Being careful to let the filtered grease cool off enough to not melt the plastic.)
Clean? Aww heck those brown bits are flavour.
❤️ That's a very good point. But unfortunately you know how the average person is out there They see that little black spot or that little brown spot and all the sudden. They don't want to eat it they think it's dirty. People don't know flavor anymore. That's why we have to put food coloring on our oranges We have to put wax over our apples We have to put chemicals in our food. Essentially we have to ruin the food so that people think it's still good. It's like a good ribeye now you get that good ribeye and it already started aging a little bit those are probably the best steaks but yet spoiled culture Don't feel the same way. Thank you for watching and commenting I hope you have a great weekend my friend
Ur awesome bro 😎 🙌 👏 bring back memories! Moms used this all the time
Looks great.. Bacon Yum
Silver Wolverine I love bacon, If you put some of the bacon grease in the pan before you cook your eggs it carries that flavor over great.
Better the seed oil
Yes, it tastes better it's probably healthier who knows it's definitely cheaper especially right now. I don't spend much time in the summer making it though mostly a winter thing but I've got like eight bottles processed already. Thank you for watching and commenting Pierwylde.
It's not yuck it's bacon particulates.
True it's not yet it's just when people see it if it's nice clear White they just seem to trust it more as opposed to if there's little black bits at the bottom of it. But it's not going to hurt anything I don't think. As always thank you for watching and commenting my friend.
I dont even strain it. Lol. I just move the bits to the side and pour into my jar. Is that gross?

Until it's gone. Which is usually quicker than you would like . Bacon grease stays good in the fridge for months

@@nicoperez9400 you're very welcome . Another thing I like to do is pour it in ice cube tray and freeze it , then when you need it just grab a cube . Bob"s you mothers brother .
Do you just throw in the bacon or do you cut out the fat and just use that?
If you keep it in the refrigerator it will harden and then you'll just have to cut little pieces of the bacon grease off and throw it in a frying pan when you cook something. Some people will keep it on a counter and then it will stay more liquid and they'll just pour a little bit in the frying pan almost like oil. I have recently started using beef tallow which is the same as bacon grease but it's beef grease. I use a smoked brisket fat that I get a good deal on pretty much free and I cook it down on low heat until it liquefies and then I jar it in bottles. It gives an awesome flavor on eggs potatoes most dishes. Thank you so much for watching and commenting Anthony please take a quick minute and hit that subscribe button to help the channel grow.
