Mostly rendered pork fat from bacon nowadays, but when my darling finds the drippings in the fridge they usually get tossed.
The answer to your question is yes.Anyone cook with fat ie lard or bacon grease.I got in some fats from fatworks so far I love them..
Right on Gacha tone.I do use lard from time to time, especially if we just made carnitas.
Butter. Well, duh.
You better believe that I keep all the bacon fat and schmaltz from cooking. Those live in their respective jars in the freezer.
Lard and schmaltz are not only great for frying, but they are magnificent for greasing a loaf pan when baking bread. When it comes to cornbread, bacon grease is the way to go.
I also keep all the fat and other drippings from when I cook brisket. That brisket fat is some serious liquid gold, baby. I tell you what. I save that stuff for special occasions.
