Momma told me this mornin that our bacon grease jar was getting dangerously low. Told her not to panic, I would take care of it and fix the problem
After re melting and re straining everything I had this jar of liquid gold
And after being set outside in the cool Florida weather, all is nback to normal int he home and the bacon grease shortage scare is now over...
With the price of bacon the way it is, it's probably worth more than gold!
Iluv2hunt,
My mother was an RN and she told my wife over 46+ years ago to not feed her little son hog lard. She said corn oil, vegetable oil, peanut oil and olive oil is what is good for for your health. So she has followed that advice most of these many years, however when my wife goes some where for several days my middle daughter and I go and get us a big piece of hog jowl, slice and fry it, then fry a bunch of eggs in the grease, just like we had good sense! Boy it's good stuff. A little bacon now and then but the dog gets the grease poured over her bowl. Any thing cooked in bacon grease is better. Beans and greens all deserve a piece of fat meat when they are being cooked. Such is life, we can't all be as lucky as you my friend!

A little pork fat is the least of our health worries nowadays....guaranteed
