Use lard, best thing
Coconut oil is good also
I remember the buckets of lard they used to sell at most grocery stores. I haven’t seen those in a long time.
You can always get some pork belly and render it yourself, slow cook it in the oven, or maybe even ask the butcher if you can straight up get some pork fat.
I like the pork belly method because not only you get a sizeable amount of fat to use later (you only need a lil bit to prepare food at a time, unless you're deep frying something of course), but you'll also have a delicious pork belly to enjoy.
The only thing lard is not very good for is to make cakes, pies, or any sweet pastry stuff, but for that coconut oil is awesome.
Thank you!! I was avoiding that based on bunk science. I was always throwing away animal fat, until now!
Best thing for you really... look up how much heart conditions increased with the introduction of crisco around 1910 or something, I've read once that heart conditions increased like 1000% or some crazy number in like 20 years.
I'm not sure if using pork belly is the best way to get lard, but I'm sure you can find many guides on rendering animal fats, around here I still find lard being sold anywhere so I just get that.
I use lard for my pie crusts and you would never know. Yes lard has a different smell, but once baked you can’t tell the difference.
Walmart carries those buckets.
It has been impossible to find lard around here, and then even the pork belly has disappeared.
Or bacon fat.
