I remember when almost everyone had a tin can at the back of their stove to save bacon grease. It was one of the best fats you could cook with. It added good taste and you get it much hotter without it smoking when frying. You could add it to things like biscuits to enhance their taste.
I’ve started using it again. I’ve come across a lot of new studies that say high cholesterol isn’t as bad as it’s been made out to be. I’m not posting to talk about that, but if it interests you, Google it. I’m wondering if there are others who use bacon grease today. I’m glad that I’ve gone back to bacon grease as well as other natural animal fats.
