10. Strain the fat

When saving the bacon grease, it's a good idea to strain the little bits of bacon and other solids out of the fat before storing it. This helps the bacon grease to last longer without becoming rancid. Use a little strainer over the top of your glass storage container to make this job easier. Store your bacon fat in the fridge, and use to roast veggies, scramble eggs, or smear it on chicken skin before searing for an amazingly crispy result.
