I put it in the fridge and it all became solid. So I guess it was some kind of oily fat at the top? Seems to be fine now. I pulled them back out of the fridge. Maybe I was too impatient and just didn't wait long enough. No idea. Haha Thank you for the reply 🥰
Does anyone have experience with this? I was trying to make a shelf stable lard. I used 7.5 lbs of pork fat run through the meat grinder. Rendered for 10 hours on low setting on slow cooker. Did not add water. This was from a pasture raised hog. Strained it through cheesecloth into jars then...
