We are all ignorant brother. I don't know most of everything. 🤷🤙

I just AI'd the shit out of this:

Beef dripping and tallow are not quite the same, although they are closely related. Tallow is rendered beef fat, while beef dripping is a more complex mixture that includes rendered beef fat along with some of the juices and meat matter from roasting.

True. You have to actually refine Tallow a few times, if you want to make it the purest.

I cook popcorn with beef tallow. Also season my cast iron with it. I cook a lot with ghee rather than beef tallow just because I like the flavor of butter.

Oh nice! Let me know what you think

Tallow and ghee are both great, they just excel at different things and overlap in others 🫡

For cast iron seasoning, highly recommend ghee over tallow mainly because of the higher smoke point.

For popcorn, can easily go either way based on taste preferences!

Many a happy childhood memory of going to the local shop and my mum buying a glass jar of beef dripping.

Excellent sandwiches witn a bit of salt..

You can take the man out of Yorkshire, but you can't take the Yorkshire out of the boy 🤣🤣😁

I ordered and ate a plate of lard in Kyiv once.

True story.
