Into your tummy, if not yours, then myn!

>>18793427
Just pour it down the drain like everyone else.

>>18793433
That might damage my landlord’s pipes.

>>18793439
The drain is a portal to another dimension. It won't damage your landlords pipes because it will be gone from our reality. This other dimension is also filled with pig people who live off bacon grease. Be kind to the pig people, pour it down the drain like a good boy.

>>18793427
Store it in a jar and use it for cooking.

>>18793427
Cook some eggs in it.

use it as a thread cutting lubricant lol

I have a compost hole in the ground in my yard , I just toss it there.

putting it in the drain might cause problems if it's cold and it solidifies and glogs the drain. Majbe if you put hot water in the drain after the grease it will reduce the risk

>>18793427
eat some canned fruit and save the can
pour it in there and put it in the freezer
then take it out with the trash on trash day

>>18793427
Bacon candle

>>18793427
cram it up your ass(as lube)

>>18793439
Thats the point.

>>18793488
Do you mean like fight club?

>>18793532
that was soap, idiot

Use it to lube up your boyfriend's big juicy cock the next time you have hardcore gay sex with him.

>>18793439
not my problem

Yeah like this anon said >>18793488
Make candles, girlfreinds love that stuff

>>18793427
Save it in a jar and once the jar is full reheat it in a pot or a pan and then pour it down the sink.

>>18793577
I thought to do that once, then once the jar was full it didn't work out to pour it out. The best solution was to just take it out to a garbage bin and that was that.

>>18793581
It all goes to the same place.

Use it cook some burgers.

>>18793427
styrofoam cup and put it in the freezer.
then you throw it out the day you take the garbage out.

>>18793488
>make a candle that will go rancid is 72 hours

Stupid Americans don't know how to solidify waste oil

Use it to cook other things.

Make beans

>>18793660
How is it going to go rancid without air contact retard?

>>18793427
Make eggs

>>18793427
>What is the best way to dispose of bacon grease?
use it to fry eggs, before a day of leaving carts out of the corral.

>>18793427
Pour it out in the yard
Pour it into a cup or a thick plastic bag and toss it out with the trash

Fuck, wait until it's not liquid and throw it into your garbage bucket.
Or poor the liquid one.
Or boiling one.
You will not cause the global nuclear catastrophe either way; trust me, I did it more than once and we are still here, talking.

People who throw away bacon fat are stupid idiots. I have never met a person who throws it away that isn't a stupid idiot.

>>18793840
I throw it away and then help stimulate the economy

Bacon is pork. You're not allowed to eat pork.

You can strain it through paper towels into a glass jar and use it as oil for eggs, potatoes and so much more. Bacon grease is essentially half monounsaturated fats and saturated fat with a smoke point of 325.

>>18793427
Learn from the king https://youtu.be/ojL21Rc1zys?t=827

>>18793427
Use it in savoury baking instead of butter.

>>18793427
You don't, you are essentially throwing food

>>18793427
throw onions in it

>>18793427
Cook with it you fine gentleman/lady.

I only recently discovered this food "hack" which is actually just wisdom of the impoverished. If you are making some meat and there is fat left over, use it as a substitution the next time a recipe requires "oil" or "butter". You will have saved some money by not having to replenish your oil reserves earlier, AND the flavor profile of the meat will be transferred into whatever you use to cook it with.
You can make like a fried zucchini by just putting (any veg really) directly into the meat fat after removing the meat from the still hot pan.
Add some wine or vinegar (pref balsamic myself) and use a pan safe utensil to scrape at the meat bits in the bottom, it will help flavor the veg while also allowing you to keep the salt content of your dish lower!

(There is sodium in most meat, especially if it was pre-seasoned/marinated, so the sodium will transfer into your second dish cooked in the pan)

I am sharing this with you because I just used some sausage fat in my risotto replacing the butter I would usually use, and OHHHHY boy it's in the top 5 risottos I have ever made.

I was considering trying to cook for a living but afraid it will make me lose a hobby if I had to depend on it to live.

Hope you are well and that this is received well.
Buon' appetito!

>>18793773
>Pour it out in the yard
Good way to get rodents and other vermin :^)

>>18793439
never happened in my entire life desu

>>18793427
soak the bread and eat it

>>18793820
speak for yourself

>>18793968
ultimate not my problem. saving you from clogged sinks but still ruining a sewage worker's day

>>18793427
put it on my woman

>>18793453
cooking what? is there a particular application for cooking with reclaimed bacon grease?

>>18793659
Can you put hot grease in a styrofoam cup?

>>18793427
I just pour dish detergent into my pan with water and let it bond before pouring it down the sink

>>18794318
Anything you'd use oil/butter for.

>>18794162
How much?

>>18793439
So?

>>18793427
i strain it and use it in yorkshire puddings with the roast drippings

>>18793439
Once it leaves your apartment it legally becomes not your problem

>>18794360
how do you strain bacon fat just a regular wire mesh strainer into a jar or something?

>>18794380
guys, even though you don't own a place or benefit from asset inflation, or benefit from the consolidation of ownership into a stratified and privledged class, doesn't mean you should do this. Lets try to make things a little nicer than they were when we found them, not worse, huh?

pour it out into the yard to attract wildlife which I will then befriend

>>18793427
cook with it
throwing out that magnificent flavorful smokey fat should be a crime

>>18794422
How much are you paying?

>>18793427
Don't eat bacon in the first place.

>>18794318
Once it cools, it’s semi-solid like butter, except it’s infused with smoky bacon flavour. It’s good for cooking eggs in it, good on toast as a butter alternative, good to sautée vegetables, and there are also some other wacky applications that I’ve never tried, but are purportedly very good, such as using bacon fat instead of butter in chocolate chip cookies.

>>18794399
You can just use a fine mesh sieve if you don’t care, but it’s good to also use a piece of paper towel or a coffee filter for maximum filtration of fine particles of bacon protein, since the protein can go bad if you leave it too long. That said, it’s kind of like potted beef preservation in that it’s surrounded by fat, so it’s not a huge concern; almost more aesthetic or autistic purity shit.

>>18793427
make tortillas

>>18794422
why

Strain bacon fat into a sealable jar until enough is collected
Melt fat and add to boiling water, allow it to mix together
Pour into wide bowl, chill until lard sets firm
Dump water and particles, flip the cake of fat and scrape any leftover bits out
Melt fat into a crockpot or saucepot if you don't have one, put in oven at 220-240F to cook off any excess moisture
(Optionally) Strain this fat through cheesecloth or a rough coffee filter if you observe any additional particles.

Wahlah, you now have relatively pure and refined lard you can use for baking, low temp frying, or sautee. Works as a great replacement for flavoring stir fry.

>>18795294
This is all unnecessary. Just pour it in a jar and Wala, use as necessary

>>18793856
:^)

Throw it into the backyard

>>18795659
This. My dogs and cats and niggers love it.

>>18793439
can't I just pour some liquid fire down there once in a while?

>>18795738
Use pic related. It comes in a plastic bag so you know it's top shelf quality.

>>18795890
too much effort. not my problem

>>18793427
I soak it up in paper towels, put them in a bag and use them to start fires in my smoker or fireplace. bacon grease burns forever.

>>18793427
dump it in an empty milk cartridge or jar, then throw that away when it's full (if you're not saving it)
>>18795738
>>18795890
>>18795904
I don't care about helping out a landlord but if you're pipes clog the landlord will probably take 2 weeks or more to fix that shit, so it's easier to just collect and throw it away then to deal with that and using your own money to purchase toxic drain cleaner

>>18793427
I roast poultry on it.
>>18793433
I can legally shoot you for pouring grease into my septic system.
>>18793439
Well anon, there is no way out of this situation, you have to become a seething commie.

I mix my bacon grease with pic related to fry chicken and then serve to the homeless. After they eat, I invite them over to my landlords property to evacuate their bowels in a posh, modern setting.

>>18795890
why is it virgin?

>>18796009

>>18793427
This reminds me that I still want to try mixing cooled, smoky bacon fat into a pie crust for a bourbon pecan pie.

>>18793427
Why in gods would you do that? I use it in my Chilli, just a table spoon worth to sauté the onions and peppers, spices whatever have you.

Save that shit!

>>18796226
Because it's bad for your heart and arteries. Why? It just is ok!? Trust the science... And don't forget to consoom soybean soil which is totes good for you

>>18793856
Model citizen/consoomer

>>18795671

>>18796389
Do you enjoy posting like this?

>>18796487
rattled

>>18796489
You didn't answer me.

>>18796492
It wasn' me

>>18796499
Sure commie.

>>18796503
Ok schizo

>>18796009
Unadulterated, it's just pure sulfuric acid.

>>18796009
It’s for gay losers who get not a crumb of pussy

>>18793427
I store it to cook other shit, or throw it in the trash after it's cooled.
Used to make folded biscuits with bacon grease, and they were good. But I've been eating less bread and carbs and shit lately, and don't have as much use for bacon grease anymore.

>>18795890
I used that on a fly nest that clogged a drain, the smell was evil

>>18795890
liquid fire comes in a plastic bag that says "warning" on it.

>>18793660
bacon grease can sit at room temperature for months and be perfectly edible. that isn't going to change because you poured it in a jar and put a wick in it.

>>18795965
>virgin sulfuric acid
>not buying extra virgin sulfuric acid

>>18793427
use it,
wait for it to solidify to dispose
toss in some paper towel or tissue paper then throw those away
throw in some flour or cornstarch and make them into lumps then throw those away

>>18793427
make bacon scented candles

>>18795112
What this guy said, but any bacon flavor from the lard is very mild (to the point where you can't really actually taste it).

>>18793660
The fat doesn't go rancid in 72 hours, you just need to make sure its purified, imagine butter vs ghee.

>>18793427
let it cool and make it into fat bombs for the birds to eat.

>>18795965
>virgin sulphuric acid
>chad hydrochloric acid

>>18795890
My drain is PVC, won't it eat through that?

How do you guys clean your cheesecloth? It turns into a wadded disaster as soon as I get it wet. I would be fine just doing single use, but it all comes from China so I have to wash it at least once

>>18798741
wtf is it made of cheese

>>18798798
When you really think about it, everything is made of cheese

>>18798828
okay this is deep

>>18795890
>virgin sulfuric acid
so, water?

>>18798905
Umm that’s not how chemistry works sweaty

>>18795112
How long can I store this stuff in the fridge before it becomes a health hazard

>>18793556
Hot

instant red beans and rice + bacon fat

>>18793427
I throw it out my windows or door onto poor unsuspecting seagulls and pigeons

>>18800775
"zesty" right out of martha stewart or dr shill

I suspect that nobody knows what "zesty" even means

>>18793556
Seems like you missed an opportunity to make a pun about getting "porked"

>>18800861
It might be "borked" from those old supreme court hearings in congress from that Bork guy

>>18800756
A few months when refrigerated, I think

>>18800775
>>18800855

>>18795890
>pouring chemicals down the drain
I seriously hope you guys dont do this.
That stuff ends up in your drinking water

Pancakes

>>18793427
if the grease already solidified, heat up the pan for like 15-30 seconds so it's liquid again
lay a sheet of paper towel, let it soak up the grease
once paper towel is saturated, throw paper towel out
repeat if there's still a lot of grease left
once you can't soak up any more grease that way, take another paper towel and run it around the pan to get any remains

>>18797996

this is an interesting idea. except the god damn squirrels.

OP you could also use it to pop popcorn - bacon grease popcorn is fuckin kino

>>18793427
Just dump it in the ocean with your old car batteries like a normal person

>>18793433
Based.

>>18793565
BASED DRAINIE

>>18793427
Lately I've been making croutons by frying stale bread in leftover bacon grease. They are heavenly and have broken some of my pseudo vegan friends

>>18793427
If you're REALLY going to waste a bunch of bacon grease then the best way is to dump it into an empty soup can and save it for the next bonfire.

>>18802592
Bonfire? Why?

Just soak it all up with your breakfast toast and fry. Delicious with butter and jelly.

>>18793427
by using it to cook with.

>>18793488
imagine the smell

>>18793488
>anon why does your house reek of racind bacon all the time?
>yes

>>18793427
Bacon grease sandwich

>>18793427
Make instant noodles in the grease.

>>18793657

not enough fat content

>>18793427
CHUG! CHUG! CHUG!
i always just use it up cooking other things afterwords

>>18793427
Use a straw

>>18793439
As Chef John says - "after all, you are the John Cleese of your bacon grease"

which I take to mean clog my landlords pipes with a singleminded commitment and will

>>18802597
>bacon fat AND butter AND jelly
Anon…

Pour it in an IV bag then ship it to your local hambeast

>>18793427
Cook some hash browns on the same pan and let them soak up the grease for flavor.

>>18793427
Use the hot drippings to make hash browns

>>18805003
Fat doesn’t make you fat.

>>18793439
I jizzed in the sink so much over the course of two years that I clogged my landlord's pipes. I'd do it again given the chance.

>>18793427
Let it solidify and throw it in the bin
