WWYD- with bacon grease?

My friend suggested making bacon on cookie racks so the fat dripped and I've never had so much left over before.  I usually save some to cook with veggies but this is like a cup of fat.  We moved in the winter so we definately don't have an active enough compost to handle protein/meats anymore and don't have any animals that would love a treat with their food.  I stuck it in the fridge and would rather not waste it.  TIA!

Re: WWYD- with bacon grease?

  • H and I like to use bacon grease to flavor soups, especially pea soup and 13 bean soup. So delicious.
  • This is excellent-  Thank you ladies!  I love making soups & will probably try suet.  I even saved meatloaf grease tonight.  Does anyone make soap (haven't in a long time but I don't think grease is clean enough for body soap)?!

    I usually always cook bacon on a rack in the oven. That way I can coat it in brown sugar and pepper. YUM

    I wondered how all the bacon flavors happened.  This is officially the beginning of my love affair with bacon.  I can't wait (& will be getting up even earlier than I need to tomorrow to make this happen)!!
