FREE BACON GREASE





This ad was found on Craigslist. I could not resist sharing this with you. I remember my mom saving bacon grease in a designated container kept in the refrigerator. I did not take him up on his offer but I did get a nice chuckle from his ad.

CRAIGSLIST AD

I'm giving away a jar of bacon grease / bacon fat, from hardwood smoked bacon. I make sure to fry it at low or medium heat so as not to burn the grease. It's a beautiful cream color.

It's a great cooking ingredient, but we don't use it in our kitchen. "Bacon butter" or "bacon drippings" are classic with vegetables or Southern cuisine. Many say "You can't fry a potato, season green beans or mustard greens without it."

Traditionally, bacon grease is saved in British and southern U.S. cuisine, and used as a base for cooking and as an all-purpose flavouring.

Killer apps for bacon grease: cornbread, green beans, spinach saute, bacon grease popcorn. How to use it: http://www.southernplate.com/2012/08/bacon-grease-uses-and-photo-gallery-of-your-bacon-grease-jars.html

  1. We always have a container of bacon grease in the fridge but never thought of offering it to someone.

  2. Big Dude, We also have a container but I would never give it away or sell it for that matter. Priceless for sure.
