After watching that video of RFK Jr explaining how fast food restaurants used to cook fries in beef tallow but then switched to oils, I decided to give it a shot. I used to always use vegetable oil for the fries or a little butter to grill the burgers on a griddle. This time I finally caved in and bought a few gallons of beef tallow. Hoo boy, was it amazing. I'm NEVER going back to vegetable oil, I'll only cook fries in tallow from here on out. The burgers were also the best I've ever made.
I wonder, what are the health benefits of tallow? 🤔
Tallow, lard, butter, ghee and coconut oil are good for you.
Lard and eggs can be just as bad as seed oils if they are fed a heavy grain diet. You are what you eat.
Definitely - you want your milk, butter, and beef to come from grass fed cows, not corn/grain fed.
Yes ...
But FRYING is not healthy cooking... which was the point I was making.
Why not? Modern day frying with garbage highly processed oils certainly is, but what is your argument against cooking/frying with tallow or butter?
A number of reasons, but primarily because you denature the proteins and enzymes, essentially rendering them trash...
Wouldn't the interior of the meat still conserve its properties? Heated to the same degree as other forms of cooking.
