Had to refer back to my old recipe as I made some more beef tallow to add to lard to make the lamb confit. We'll see how it works.
This time I got good numbers, too.
2.5 pounds beef fat cut into half-inch or smaller chunks, crowded in one layer in a big steel roasting pan at 300 degrees takes almost exactly 3 hours to render and yields just under 2 cups of tallow. It smells so good in here!!
And yeah, I like to salt mine. Cayenne also works wonderfully on cracklin's.

Not above resurrecting a very old thread I began years ago.

Reason: added amount of rendered fat
