Ranch Recipe
Rendering Your Own Tallow
Ingredients
- 5 lbs Hooser Reserve Beef Fat
- 1/2 cup water
- Fine mesh strainer and cheesecloth
- Clean glass jars
Method
- Cut the fat into 1 inch pieces, or run it through a grinder if you have one. Smaller pieces render faster and cleaner.
- Put it in a heavy pot with the water. The water keeps it from scorching before the fat starts to melt, and it cooks off on its own.
- Set it on the lowest heat you have, or a slow cooker on low, and leave it alone.
- After 3 to 5 hours the solids will have shrunk into crisp brown bits and the liquid will be clear gold.
- Strain it through cheesecloth into clean jars while it is hot.
- It sets up snow white. Keep it in the pantry for months or the fridge for a year.
Ranch tip: Low and slow is the whole thing. Rush it and the tallow comes out brown and beefy instead of clean and neutral. Kidney fat (suet) renders the whitest and firmest.
