How to render beef fat into tallow🐄 Step by step This process can seem hard, but trust me it’s really simple and the result is worth it! Rendering your own tallow also reduces waste by utilizing parts of the animal that might otherwise be discarded. What can you use tallow for? •Cooking: High smoke point for frying and sautéing. •Skincare: Natural moisturizer or skincare ingredient. •Soap Making: Adds hardness and creamy lather to soap. •Candle Making: Creates slow, steady-burning candles. •Leather Conditioner: Conditions and preserves leather goods. •Wood Preservation: Treats wood to prevent drying and cracking. •Lubricant: Used as a lubricant for machinery and equipment. •Bird Feeder Coating: Mixed with birdseed for homemade feeders. •Emergency Candle: Poured with a wick for emergency lighting. •Rust Prevention: Applied to metal surfaces to prevent corrosion.

Side by side comparison of the first and third render - A Step-by-Step Guide The rendering process is extremely important for tallow making, especially if you’re trying to get rid of that beefy smell. Rendering helps remove water soluble impurities and in this video I demonstrate the differences between the effects of multiple renders and how it can positively impact the quality of your tallow, helping your process further, especially for cooking or skincare formulations. #beeftallow #homemade #homestead #tallow #cookinghacks #beeftallowskincare #foodtutorial #renderedbeeftallow #homesteading #selfsufficiency #cowshare

Since y’all enjoyed my first tallow rendering series so much, here’s another video of me processing our tallow through 3 wet renders. This batch did need a final 4th render, but unfortunately, I wasn’t able to film it. #beeftallow #tallowskincare #beeftallowskincare #tallow

Rendering your own beef tallow is really easy! There’s something very satisfying about using tallow or lard that you rendered yourself. 🐄❤️ Here are some tips for making tallow: ✨ Ask your farmer or butcher for beef suet. They’ll know what you mean! If you’re lucky, they might even be willing to grind it for you (and that’ll save you lots of time)! ✨ Be sure to keep the lid off—this is really important. While rendering, any remaining moisture will evaporate ensuring the tallow won’t spoil. ✨ Make sure to use the smaller burner & the lowest setting on your stovetop. You don’t want the tallow to burn. I actually use a heat diffuser for making tallow because my stovetop is too hot for a simmer. ✨ Stir occasionally and keep an eye on it. Rendering usually just takes a few hours. Once the cracklings turn a golden color and all the fat has melted down, the tallow is ready. ✨ Use a fine mesh strainer to filter out any impurities. Some people also use a cheese cloth but I don’t find this to be necessary. ✨ You can keep the tallow cracklings to eat or feed to the birds outside! ✨ Tallow is solid at room temperature, and will also turn from a golden color to white! ✨ If rendered properly, tallow has a long shelf life of up to a year at room temp or years in the fridge. Use your nose as a guide. You’ll know if it goes bad! ✨ Tallow has a high smoke point of about 400 degrees fahrenheit and is great for searing meats like steak! We use it for cooking just about everything. It’s a much healthier alternative to industrial seed oils (ex. canola oil). We use the same process for rendering lard or other animal fats. Once you do it a few times, it’s super easy! Beef tallow is expensive, so you’ll save lots of money making your own. Follow along for more real food recipes. 🫶🏻 P.S. If you don’t have a good local beef source, @whiteoakpastures and @northstarbison have grass-fed beef and bison suet that you can have delivered to your doorstep. Use the code “ribeyerach” for a discount at their farm shops. ❤️

Tallow is gold in our home! I render this tallow with the suet we get from our beef on processing day. Suet is the pure fat around the kidneys of a beef steer. Not only has tallow majorly up to our self-sufficiency game, but it’s also helped me to get so many chemicals out of my home. I use this tallow to make soap, cook my food, mop my floors, wash my dishes, shave my legs, make homemade deodorant, and make a body butter that locks moisture into the skin like none other. Clean does not mean highly-perfumed, chemical products. Tallow has reminded me that a clean and healthy lifestyle can be mind-blowingly simple. #Minimalist #FoodSecurity #FoodPreservation #TallowSoap #TallowBodyCareProducts #RenderTallow #Self-sufficiency #Self-sufficiency #FoodIndependence #MoreThanFarmers #Homesteading #HomesteadLife #HomesteadSkills #MakeFoodRealAgain #NontoxicLifeStyle

How to Render Tallow (Wet Method) PART 1 Start by acquiring grass-fed pasture raised beef suet. You really want high-quality suet for this. Remove any large veins and tendons. Chop up the remaining clean fat into small pieces. Place the pieces in a pot or crockpot, and fill the rest with salt water. Simmer on low for about 8 hours. Remove from heat, and strain using a mesh strainer and cheese cloth. Make sure you're pouring this into a bowl with no e round edges for easy removal later. Let cool to room temp, then place into the refrigerator. Once completely cooled, the fat will be come hardened. Put a small amount of pressure on one end and pop put the solid piece. Repeat the process with heating the suet and salt water again. This ensures a nice clean product. After the second straining/filtering, let cool. Pop it out, and allow to dry completely. You can store in a bag, or heat it up just until melted, so you can pour it and save it in a jar. Make sure to watch part 2! Happy Tallow Rendering! #Tallow #homesteading #nowaste #naturalskincare #natural #howto

How to Make Beef Tallow Ingredients • 2 kg beef fat (suet or trimmings) Instructions 1. Chop the beef fat into very small pieces. The smaller the pieces, the better and faster it renders. 2. Place the chopped fat into a large pot. 3. Cook on low heat for about 2 hours, stirring occasionally. • Do not let it fry or burn—the fat should slowly melt and release liquid oil. 4. Once most of the fat has melted and the solid pieces look shriveled and golden, remove from heat. 5. Carefully strain the liquid fat through a fine strainer or cheesecloth into a heat-safe container. 6. Let it cool at room temperature, then cover and refrigerate if desired. 7. Once cooled, the tallow will solidify into a creamy white or pale yellow fat. Storage • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for several months, or freeze for longer storage. #recipe #food #healthy #viral #trending chef dinner lunch shawarma cooking chefsdoor cheflife homecookingmagicianskitchen

Part 1: Rendering Beef Tallow Ask for “beef suet” for more pure and nutrient dense. Beef suet is the best option, but you can use any beef fat (it just might take longer to get pure). I got this from my local butcher, he was so nice and ran it through the grinder to make it easier to work with. But most times you’ll have to cut it all up. Make sure you keep it in your fridge. For the first render only I did a “wet” render to help it be more “pure” in the end (also helps get rid of beefy smell). But we want to get all the water out so it becomes shelf stable. By the 5th or 6th render (cooking 6 times) you’ll see there won’t be any “impurities” to scrape off and it’s ready to make into skincare. If you only want this for cooking you only have to render 1-2 times. Follow for part 2 where I’ll make whipped tallow. 💛 #beeftallow #tallow #diy #tallowskincare #beeffat
