Instructions
- To store bacon fat, let it cool so it is still warm enough to pour, but not too hot.
- Pour the liquid fat into a heatproof container using a fine mesh strainer.
- I usually pour mine into a wide mouth glass jar. This makes for easy pouring and easy spooning out of the solidified fat.
- Make sure that you do not keep adding to the jar as the grease on the bottom is the oldest.
