Thoughts on pre-made bacon grease?
>>20979865Sounds like you're depriving yourself of bacon
Why not just cook some bacon and save the grease in a jar? Then you have bacon and the grease for cooking stuff later.. I dont understand this..
>>20979865They add preservatives. Better off buying bacon
>>20979865If you want to fry stuff in something to make it taste more like bacon it's there for you.
>>20979916Anon I...
>>20980158Anon you...
>>20979865It's retarded. Use lard if you want to cook in pork fat. Who knows what the hell they're putting in it to make it "bacon grease". I'm pretty the company isn't frying bacon in industrial quantities to harvest the grease. If you're making a dish that calls for bacon grease, just fry some bacon. Stroke zombie carnivore diet Ja/ck/ loves this Bacon Up shit which screams at me AVOID.
>>20979916buddy, wait till you find out how they make bacon
>>20980203>I'm pretty the company isn't frying bacon in industrial quantitieswow, so you are just going to assume that the thing that says>rendered bacon faton the front of the package, is not rendered bacon fat?you are a very special type of retard
>>20979865An entire pallet of that shit spilled out somehow on our overnight freight truck, those goobers drove a forklift through it and all over the dock. It's been a month or more and it still smells like bacon grease.
>>20980226Legally it only needs to contain 5% bacon fat
My problem with cooking with bacon grease is that if I want something to taste like bacon then I'll just cook some bacon. I always end up saving a full jar of bacon grease, then it just sits in my fridge for a year before I throw it out. I've tried using it for roasting potatoes, but it always gives a lackluster crunch compared to other fats in my experience. Plus it has the unfortunate effect of making you want bacon when there is none.
>>20980226Are they producing their own bacon only to render it and lose all the money and time it took to produce the bacon in the first place or are they buying bacon from a producer? Either way it seems like the company would lose money from wasting a ton of bacon just to get the fat. Are they selling the bacon they rendered or discarding it?
>>20980309BaconUp is pure bacon fat, go check the company's website. My guess is, they use tons of bacon for other stuff and they just decided one day to market the grease as well.
>>20980320I eat all their bacon
>>20980320You do realize that pre-cooked bacon bits are a widely available product, right?
>>20980321Cheched the site. They say they use real bacon but beyond that there isn't much information on where the bacon comes from or what they do with the rendered bacon afterwards.
>>20980342Obviously it's used in various pre-cooked bacon products. I don't get why you think there's some conspiracy going on to cover up where they put the bacon.
>>20980183
>>20980342they feed it to pigs
>>20980241We've had it for a month now and haven't sold a single one. Nobody is paying $50+ for 30lbs of bacon grease.
>>20980361I think the preservative in question is the BHA specifically added to the rendered bacon fat. Read the fine print on the OP image.
>>20980373I use it in my food hacks trole. Twu
>>20980320you fucking idiot, they just buy the grease from precooked bacon companies and sell it
>>20980342check the about us section, it's all explained. >Bacon Up is authentic bacon grease, captured as our supplier makes bacon bits and pre-cooked bacon for their other customers
>>20980361This is just scaremongering, those nitrites kill botulism, which kills you WAY fucking faster than cancer could. You'd have to shotgun straight nitrite salts to die, and it wouldn't be from cancer. Also, zero proof for the mechanism with which nitrates to cause cancer.
>>20979913I don't want to cook ten pounds of shitty bacon and keep slimy lard drippings in a folger's can in my kitchen.
>>20980542Nitrites also rapidly react with the proteins in meat to convert to nitrate which is much less of a concern. Heat also increases the rate of conversion, so the amount of nitrite actually consumed from something like bacon is essentially null.
>>20980542nitrates are as dangerous as table salt is. The problem aren't nitrites and nitrates it's the compounds they create when bound to proteins and exposed to high heat, those compounds are called nitrosamines.
>>20980316Sounds like you are just a bad cook, there are a thousand uses for bacon grease. Honestly if you can't even cook potatoes you should probably let the man of the house do the cooking.
>>20980547ya, I'd rather have Ramirez cook 1000 lbs of hogs well past their marketable life down into sludge, have chemicals added to it then buy it in a 10 gallon bucket at the local fart and shart food mart for 55 real american greenback buckaroonies
>>20980646Too bad for you that isn't what is happening I guess.
>>20980680>Ingredients. Rendered Bacon Fat (Bacon Cured with Water, May Contain Salt, Sea Salt, Potassium Chloride, Sugar, Brown Sugar, Smoke Flavor, Sodium Diacetate, Sodium Phosphates, Sodium Ascorbate, Sodium Erythorbate, Dextrose, Sodium Nitrite), BHA.ok bud
>>20980547Pussy.
Is this where all the grease from pork rinds goes? Bacon Up seems kind of shady, like they're buying industrial pork fat byproduct and flavoring it.
>>20979865so it's just belly lard?
>>20979865How long does this shit last? Same as regular bacon fat? I saved some bacon grease when I fried some up for breakfast and it went rancid after a few weeks and completely wrecked my frying pan.
>>20980756Did you refrigerate it?
>>20980765No wtf I never put oil in the fridge
>>20980692Oh my god, water and brown sugar
>>20980692ok what? the only thing you're proving here is how fucking dumb you are.
isn't that just lard with smoke?
>>20979865I can't even imagine how giga obese you have to be to go through 10 kilos of bacon grease before it goes rancid
>>20979865>Thoughts on pre-made bacon grease?>pre-made>preyou can't pre do something
>>20980203>I'm pretty the company isn't frying bacon in industrial quantities to harvest the grease.see this is the statement where you reveal yourself to be retarded.where do you think all the grease goes from the already cooked bacon they sell? hmmm?
>>20979916>They add preservatives. Better off buying baconbacon is made with tons of preservatives. that's the whole point of why bacon was cured.
>>20980547so cook 4 pounds, and keep the grease in a grease container. also there is no slime in bacon grease.
>>20980692>MAY CONTAIN
>>20980756>it went rancid after a few weeksbullshit, I regularly make bacon fat, and keep it in my stove in a can, and it has lasted at least 4 months without going rancid.I say at least 4 months because that's when it ran out.
>>20981382I can't believe how retarded you are that you don't know that is for restaurants, or people who use it to deep fry.
>>20981382>what are restaurants>what are large family gatherings damn, must suck to be this stupid...
>>20981382It says right on the labial that it's for deep frrying.
americans enjoy the privilege of purchasing a 5 gallon bucket of quality bacon grease and all the faggots in this thread can do is bitch and moan. boggles the mind
>>20980692wtf is sodium diacetate sodium ascorbate and sodium erythorbate
>>20980542Sodium nitrate used for meat processing is actually the second most popular suicide method on sanctioned suicide
>>20983067>sodium diacetateacetic acid salt or concentrated vinegar salt>sodium ascorbateascorbic acid salt aka vitamin c>sodium erythorbateerythorbic acidconverts nitrates into harmless nitric oxide
>>20979913Wow, so uh yeah...
>>20980542>kill botulism>kill a broken leg>kill a gunshot wound>kill diabetes>kill being retarded
>>20979865Get lard. Bacon has a ton of additives and shit.I looked up their nutrition facts. At least they don't have any trans fat, which makes them better than fucking trash Tenderflake lard. Here is what their website says:>Although Bacon Up contains only two ingredients – bacon fat and BHA – we also list on our ingredient statement the list of ingredients that the bacon MAY have been cured in. Because our supplier prepares bacon with different cures for different bacon products, we list them ALL, just to be on the safe side.>Many people notice – and wonder why! – the Ingredient Statement says the bacon itself may have been cured with sea salt or brown sugar, for instance, and yet our FDA-approved Nutrition Facts panel indicates Bacon Up has Zero mg of Sodium and Zero g of Carbohydrates per serving. Note that only trace amounts of sodium, carbs, etc. cook out of the bacon and end up in the grease. In a one-tablespoon serving, it is less than the amount required to be reported.Ingredients>Rendered Bacon Fat (Bacon cured with water; may contain Salt, Sea Salt, Potassium Chloride, Sugar, Brown Sugar, Smoke Flavor Sodium Diacetate, Sodium Phosphates, Sodium Ascorbate, Dextrose, Sodium Nitrate), BHA addedhttps://baconup.com/about-us/Personally, I would suggest grabbing fresh lard from a local Mexican shop that sells it (many such places will actually render and sell the lard fresh themselves because Mexicans use it a lot in their cuisine).
>>20983152Right and if you drink too much water you die. What's your point?
>>20980550Bacteria in the gut can convert the nitrates into nitrites. It's generally not a problem unless you're an infant or a cow though. Nitrates and stuff occur in high quantities in vegetables.
>>20980692How do you cure bacon with water?
>>20983505Read that as:>cured with water and some mystery amounts of the followingThe fat is made from bacon cured in an assorted number of ways.
>>20981446haha, LARGE family gatherings? because of mega FATNESS?? hahahahahaha... AHAHAHA lollll
>>20979865I like spreading it on bread and crackers
>>20980555>nitrates are as dangerous as table salt is.except table salt is not dangerous.
>>20983152can I get a quick top 10 rundown please kind frogposter?(I would use an exit bag personally but your phrasing is hilarious, you have me curious now)
>>20983610that's exactly my point.
>>20980547Just put it through a mesh and put it in a jar dumbass.
>>20979865it's that good
>>20980756you're supposed to get all the bits out of it
>>20979913I would need several pigs worth of bacon to make 21 pounds of bacon fat.
>>20983185and BHA
>>20979913>why not ju-ACK!It's obviously a fucking industrial kitchen supply store, idiot.
>>20984399>this scary sounding thing is being added to a bunch of food!!!>well, no one bans it despite it being under review for the last 50 years>b-b-but this one study from 1988 says it might be bad!>some rats got cancer after some chinese college injected 5x their body weight hourly! this PROVES it causes cancer!!!
>>20983806You don't get it amerilard. In first world countries our bacon is mostly meat. Cooking a single strip doesn't yield the gallons of factory pig grease yours does. Buying a product similar (yet vastly superior to) the corn lard in the OP is more economical.
>>20984643>My country is such a third-world shithole that even the pigs can't put on any weightWhat the fuck are you talking about? Post bacon, thirdie.
>on cue the amerigoblin rushes to defend his fluoridated 70% fat bacon he paid $30 forLaughing out loud. Laughing my ass off, even.
>>20984490sounds like cope
>>20984937Did you know that even a hundred percent free range wild auroch steak butchered by the light of the full moon according to slavic pagan law contains chemicals
>>20979865it clears acne better than any bullshit chemicals you can buy
>>20980756supposedly rendered animal fats can make pemmican last decades but will go rancid in the fridge after a few weekssomeones lying
>>20983935It that pic OC?2282x
>>20985520I'm not sure what that means...
