Notes

While bacon grease can be an amazing ingredient to add to roasted vegetables like potatoes or brussel sprouts, it can also be used to season cast iron or as a cooking oil for eggs. 
 
To save this delicious oil for later, strain the drippings into a glass container. Let the jar and the oil cool to room temperature. If you’re not going to use the grease soon, transfer to the fridge for longer storage.
