My Mom was afraid of fat thanks to the bad science of the middle and late 20th century, so we never did that growing up. When I went keto, I started keeping bacon grease and have had some in the fridge every since. It's like cooking with real cream, it's just better and I'm not going back.
Tastes great, and I will come to using bacon grease as a mayonnaise substitute on occasion.
I'm a big fan of data-driven decisions. You want to make me smile, show me a spreadsheet! Extra points for graphs and best-fit predictive equations.
Full carnivore here! Never going back!
These days I have to choose more hart healthy oils. However when I make chili, I fry up some bacon and then caramelize the onions in the bacon grease. Later on I chop up the bacon and add it in the chili. It just makes it better and it's not obvious why...

Who convinced you those oils you are eating are heart healthy?Originally Posted by technojock
Grandma's old metal Crisco or coffee can on the stove is OK----- unless you can do better:
I got this for my birthday a few years ago,
I haven't measured it, but I think it holds about 2 quarts, maybe a little more.

OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.
This ain't your Grandma's sewing circle.

Here is a link to a physician expaining why bacon is good for you. He recommends a serving of SIX slices. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcQX9MtQG4Q&t=324s
Every now and then, I set some out for the stray cat that hangs around.

That look on your face, when you shift into 6th gear, but it's not there.
I bet that cat loves you for it. I ate a half a pound of bacon with 12 eggs last night. Yum!
Every time I open up a pack of bacon, four little dogs surround me. They know that smell and they're gonna get them some of that!
