How To Make Beef Tallow

"Learn how to make beef tallow on your homestead. This natural animal fat has been a staple in traditional kitchens for generations, and for good reason. This versatile, healthy fat is perfect for high-heat cooking, deep frying, and even skincare. Making your own beef tallow at home is simple, cost-effective, and satisfying. Learning How to Make Beef Tallow I still remember the first time my mother-in-law showed me how to render both beef tallow and pork lard, over 40 years ago. Back then, it wasn’t a trendy skill or a hobby—it was simply part of our daily lives on our family’s dairy farm."
