Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees fahrenheit.
  • Be sure to cut your fat into large chunks. There’s no magic size, just as long as it’s not in one big piece.
  • Place the fat chunks into an 8x8 baking dish.
  • Cook for 3 hours.
  • Remove from the oven. Be careful to not burn yourself.
  • Pour the liquid from the pan, through a fine strainer, into a pourable measuring cup or bowl.
  • Immediately pour the liquid from the bowl/measuring cup into jars and secure the lids.
  • Let the fat come to room temperature. Tighten the lids one more time and then place the fat in the refrigerator for 48 hours or until set.
