🥩 Ground Beef Fat – Ready for Rendering into Tallow
Fresh from our butcher’s meat room, this premium ground beef fat is carefully trimmed, cleaned, and coarsely ground in small batches. Perfect for DIY tallow rendering, it delivers a pure, clean fat ideal for high-heat cooking, skincare recipes, or traditional food preservation.
Sourced from the same high-quality beef you know and love right from our meat room - the fats left from our ground sirloin, and steaks, this ground fat is easy to work with—just heat gently to transform it into golden, shelf-stable tallow.
✨ How to Render Beef Tallow
Rendering tallow is simple—here’s how to do it at home:
Prep Your Fat:
Keep cold until ready to use (cold fat is easier to handle).
Slowly Heat:
Place fat in a heavy-bottomed pot or slow cooker.
Set to low heat—do not rush it!
As it heats, fat will slowly melt and separate. Stir occasionally.
Strain & Store:
Once most fat has melted and bits have browned (2–4 hours), line a fine mesh strainer with cheesecloth.
Pour hot liquid fat carefully through the strainer into heat-safe jars.
Allow jars to cool fully before sealing.
Cool & Use:
Once cooled, tallow will become creamy white.
Store in the pantry (short-term) or refrigerator/freezer (longer-term).
🍳 What About the Crispy Bits Left Behind?
Don’t toss them! The flavorful beef cracklings (sometimes called “scraps” or “gribenes”) are delicious:
Season with salt and pepper while warm.
Use as a savory topping for salads or potatoes.
Mix into scrambled eggs.
Toss into tacos, burritos, or soups.
Combine with a bit of ground beef to create rich taco meat.
This way, nothing goes to waste—just old-fashioned nose-to-tail cooking.
