Product information

Raw Buffalo Fat — Buffalo Tallow

Raw buffalo fat rendered into tallow produces a stable cooking fat with a high smoke point. This product is sold per pound for rendering and use in high-heat cooking, frying, and soapmaking.

Product details

Sold by the pound; sold raw for home rendering.
Good for frying, roasting, and traditional recipes where a high-smoke-point fat is desired.
Also used in soapmaking and candle rendering.

How to render

Cut fat into small pieces. Place in a pot with a splash of water to prevent early burning and heat gently, keeping temperature low (do not exceed 170°F) so fat melts out without browning. Stir periodically. Strain hot tallow through cheesecloth over a colander into a clean container. Let cool before transferring to jars.

Storage & handling

Before rendering, store raw fat refrigerated. Rendered tallow may be stored at room temperature when fully cooled and sealed, but refrigeration will extend freshness. Keep away from direct heat and sunlight.
