I always chug a beer/soda, open the top of the can using a can opener, and pour the grease into that.

NOTE: make sure all the liquid is out of the bottom of the can (maybe wipe it down with a towel) or else the grease may shoot back out

IF you absolutely must do this, make sure to fill the bottom of the sink with a little bit of cold standing water first. This helps to break up the grease and seal in the juices.

Are you the same people complaining about increasing food prices who are also throwing away the best part? The bacon is the byproduct. People! Save this grease and use it when another recipe calls for butter.

I guess they have been trained to not value valuable things so they can buy new things to serve that same purpose? I stayed with someone who threw away all the white part of his leeks because that was all just root and they once touched dirt or something.

Keep them money saved by using bacon grease for heart disease later on.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

The savings go into the next pack of bacon, creating an endless bacon grease hack.

Butter is already like 90% fat.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

If you aren’t the kind of person who eats bacon to get that bacon fat from in the first place, feel free to ignore.

In my house, you'll do what I do, and believe what I believe.

Dad owned a low rent apartment house. people would put chicken bones in the drain and then call because the drain backed up. and take bulbs out of the hallway lights. He'd laugh about it then fix the stuff because he wasn't a good slum-lord. Probably never broke even

Our drains need to learn to evolve with our rapidly changing technology

How much grease are you guys using in america

[–] [email protected] 14 points 4 days ago (2 children)

90% of cooking uses oil. If you cook meat you end up with grease. Stop being pretentious.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Certainly not enough to put in a jar. I usually give it a wipe with a single paper towel

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Have you ever cooked bacon? That's about the only grease I've known folks to save. Maybe some from ground beef if you're cooking up a whole lot.

And where do you dump the paper towel then? The idea behind a jar is that there are facility that takes that grease and (supposedly) won't dump it in a trash field, which is pretty much bad too.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago

In the compost.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

The idea behind a jar is that you're saving up the grease to reuse later.

What is it with Europeans shitting on Americans on the internet so much lately? If we're being honest everything that is current day American is either directly or indirectly their fault.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 days ago

You mean, just f.e. that they never switched to metric system although they promised. This gotta be europes fault. Definitely. Americans are simply not responsible for their actions the last 300 yrs or so. It gotta be europeans.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Its fine to remind the self centered that the world doesn't revolve around them.
