What would you do with this?

I have sinned for long enough and I'm looking to redeem myself! I usually make 3 pounds of bacon a week on average. So I make more then I can or should save, bacon renderings that is.

I've heard of people using it to pop their popcorn in or fry eggs but thats about the extent of it. Just wondering if and what any of you do with yours. I'm sure CowGirl has some great uses.
Thanks everyone

I use it to season just about everything I cook. Beans, peas, eggs, cabbage...Everything.

I use mine for beans the most. Red beans and rice. Pintos. Bean soup.

Season your smoker with it. Give it a good rub down or spay on coat and let it burn in.

I'm gonna have to start trying to make beans it sounds

My boys and I love it as a "sauce" for pasta.

I use it on my bread for grilled cheese sandwich instead of butter or on burger buns when I toast them.
Also good to cook your pierogies in.

Used to know a lady that would make mashed potatoes, let them cool in the fridge overnight then make patties out of them and fry them in bacon grease.

Also had a roommate in college who's mom would pop popcorn in bacon grease and bring it down in a garbage bag. Loved that stuff.

I assume it to have a much higher flash point then butter so I can use it for my hasselback potatoes with a much greater success

I'm loving some of these ideas.

Pretty sure it was rendered beef fat and she called it "Beef Love".

The best prime rib I ever ate was slathered and cooked in bacon grease.

O-M-G it was amazing!

Just about anywhere you'd cook with butter (or even other shortenings, like oil). It's (animal fat) pretty much what they used everywhere 100 years ago. My grandparents had a jar next to the stove, and it wasn't 100 years ago.

What are the two seperate layers?

Use it to lubricate fingerling potatoes while roasting them on an indirect grill for about 10 min or until fork tender.

How do you store it, in the frige?

Great for frying spaetzle in - use it with flour to make a roux for milk gravy - add some to your refried beans - mix 50/50 with butter for frying breaded fish - so many good things!
