I used to pour it into a glass jar. But these days I’m just using a paper towel or 3 after it dries and chuckin it in the bin.
I pour it into a bowl. Once full ill freeze it then toss out on trash day
Fried bread!
What I totally don’t ever do under any circumstance at anytime for any reason even though it’s super convenient and easy is pour it down the sink. Yes sir. That’s not something I ever, ever do! Wouldn’t it be crazy if I did? Omg. So crazy!
Yes, so crazy. You don’t want to cause a fatberg the size of a bus
Are you renting or do you own?
🤣

🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭
🤣
And if you rent, do you like the town?
I also do paper towels for the bulk, though I try to do it while the pan is still a little warm, and may even heat the pan up a little if needed, so that if it’s a fat that’s solid at room temperature, I can treat it the same way as oil.
paper, then boil
Paper towel -> trash.
Also a reason why we don’t deep fry something and only fry semi submerged
Reduce, reuse, recycle.
I try not to deep fry anything, my body doesn’t need it, and the convection oven does a decent job. Shallow frying can also do a similar job most times at the cost of some extra time.
Decent quantity of bacon grease get collected for reuse. Small amounts just get paper toweled. If I did give in and deep fry something, that oil is being reused all week. Go big or go home.
When I’m done with it, I grab the smallest sealable container from the recycling, out the cooled fat in it, and it goes in the trash. It usually isn’t more than a cup or 2.
Reusing cooking oil many times increases your cancer risk more than cooking alone. Fyi
Appreciate the concern. The air fryer has all but eliminated my home frying. I always hated throwing out the oil, but I know it’s not great to keep around, so I was never big into frying at home.
Don’t overreact. Depends on temperature and mostly how many times.
I generally don’t get a lot of fat left in my pan. But when there is some, I tend to use it for whatever I cook next. It’s good stuff.
Lubricate the garbage disposal with it.
Damn, I’m happy you said garbage disposal.
As opposed to garbage “disposer”? I use both interchangeably.
I read this as “How do I deal with leftists regarding the leftover fat or oil in my pain?” I’m sorry.
Oh that’s what I meant. Guess there was a typo and people got carried away. How DO you deal with leftists leftover fat?
I keep telling them to eat less calories. But I donno, they get sweaty and I gotta keep wiping them down with paper towels.
Yeah, it was meant as an “I have no reading skills” thing as opposed to a political thing.
I got that. I’m just goofing around.
Keep an extra can about for fat drippings.
Other than saving it for use later when possible, we let it solidify and scrap it into the trash.
Into a teacup, into the fridge, then when full and solidified, peeled out and thrown into the trash.
Down the drain, the tenant special.
