It makes really good soap. (The problem is finding lye. It must be
used in processing illegal drugs or something, cuz it's still legal
but has become impossible to find)

If you have a musket, you can mix beef grease with beeswax to make
bullet lube.

It should also be good for making pie crust; basically anything that
calls for Crisco.

French Fries! Isn't that what McDonald's used to use to fry in originally?
I've never personally done it but I recall those good fries of years
gone by.... <sigh>

I rmember reading that the original fry oil
was half beef fat and half lard. I don't know
what special qualities that has over beef fat or
lard alone.

Serves you right for not letting it simmer overnight the *right* way.

I love cooking with wine.
Sometimes I even put it in the food.

Brown country-fried steak

Saute onions and potatoes for beef or corned beef hash

Keep it frozen until winter then feed it to the birds.

It's also great for roasting potatoes.

Ooh, tell me more.
My roasting potatoes is coat them in olive oil, salt and rosemary and
in the oven until golden.
Substitute the beef grease for olive oil and anything else? - Mike

Beef grease is one thing I never bother keeping. It goes into the trash.

I only have roast beef occasionally. I don't think it is enough to make
it a serious problem.

It's not too hard to find lye, but it's a bit expensive unless you're
buying large amounts.

Same thing. Fry potatoes, onion rings. Beef tallow is tasty.
