We keep a tupperware dish in the fridge of bacon grease. We don't use it for much but a dab of it works great for getting the dogs to eat their meds. It gets like lard in the fridge.True. Bacon grease only can be made from bacon when you do it yourself. I've never seen that sold in stores and I think the reason why is it can go rancid if not used soon enough. You can make bacon grease in a microwave if you have the tray made to do it with. We bought 4 lbs of thick sliced bacon Friday while it was on a half price sale. It made an exceptional BLT for lunch today. If I do feed out a pig I will get a loin made into smoked chops too and trip the fat and render it and that will be like bacon drippings too.
