South Chicago Packing 100% Pure Wagyu Beef Tallow, 42 Ounces – Paleo & Keto Friendly Cooking Fat for Searing, Sautéing & Frying

This was my 3rd purchase of Wagyu Beef Tallow and although pricey, cooking with it is excellent, giving me the results and tastes I am looking for in the end product. It is refined to a creamy texture, and the container allows you to scrap everything out of it with nothing wasted. I no longer use any type of seed oils, relying on butter, tallow, coconut, ghee & olive oil. Even though buying certified organic is a bit more expensive than high-production oils, I find they are of higher quality, satisfies my needs and is worth paying more. I also sparingly use this tallow by using it as a hand cream, and less often as an after-shave conditioner.

I am fairly new to cooking with tallow. beena t it for about a year now. I researched a lot on the negative health issues with seed oils and decided to make a change to benefit my family. So now, we use Tallow, Avocado oil and rarely Peanut oil (Sorry, but makes the best popcorn). I use tallow now for most of my meats and to pre-season my cast iron skillets and my flat top (Blackstone) outdoor grill. I will tell you, the flavor this adds to my hamburgers and steaks is notable and very pleasing. This tallow adds a nice beefy flavor to anything beef, love cooking with this. I have read with other brands, the color is off or there is an unpleasant odor when cooking, This WAGYU Tallow is not like that. It has a nice almost pure white richness in color. The consistency is a little thinner than lard and that makes it easier to work with. I originally bought two of these, one to use in the kitchen and one to use on my outdoor grill. Storage is easy, keep in a cool dry place or in fridge. I keep mine in the kitchen cabinet and got almost a year use out of it. No mold, no mildew, straight up held its own in the cabinet. As to what you are actually getting, the label reads Pure rendered Wagyu beef fat. Period, no added suet or other ingredients. Bought my second round of this a week ago so I am happy with the quality of this tallow. I would highly recommend this tallow for your culinary needs. Also, this has a low melt and high smoke point, so if you live in a warm environment, you may be happier storing in the fridge to maintain its consistency.

South Chicago Packing’s 100% Pure Wagyu Beef Tallow has become one of my favorite cooking fats. The flavor is rich without being overpowering, and it gives steaks, eggs, potatoes—pretty much anything—a beautiful sear and crisp texture. The 42‑ounce tub is generous, easy to scoop from, and lasts a long time even with regular use. I also appreciate that it’s a clean, single‑ingredient fat that fits perfectly with Paleo and Keto cooking. If you want a reliable, high‑quality tallow that elevates everyday meals, this one delivers.

The perfect way to bast, cook, grill, or smoke. One canister could go a long way depending on how often used — We just love this 100% wagyu tallow that we order it monthly on our subscriber and save because we do all the things listed above. Husband loves to grill and smoke large portions of meat to feed the neighborhood and if we ever start to have an excessive of canisters being shipped, we can skip deliveries. But most often we gift to people that host us for dinners or barbecues. I’ve also purchased lard from this company for my tamales and other baking needs. Appreciate the clean ingredient, and that it is healthier option especially over seed oils that are damaging to our bodies. The price is worth knowing I’m getting a quality product from a company I trust.

Excellent, use it on any muscle to get the best flavor and tenderness.

Love this! Very tasty and butter for us!

So far, this 42 Ounce container from South Chicago Packing is by far the best Beef Tallow in both Quality and Price from Amazon. Our containers have arrived consistently well packed, sealed, and fresh (never rancid on delivery). Long list of hints here: Upon opening, the smell should be odorless (this was). Texture: like Crisco, and white in color. This tallow is like a whipped product that appears white, so to keep it consistent in its original form you must keep it stored in a cool cellar or pantry (a technique for longer-term storage is always lid closed, then placed in a Paper Bag as if winter squash going into the cellar). In daily use, keep away from heat, store in Pantry but be very deliberate when getting this out to use it, do not set next to a hot stove, nor your Toaster (packaging says keep away from heat, after all), not even for brief periods of time (treat the can like a child - don't touch the hot oven). If you are on Amazon Subscribe & Save, stock up in cooler months, avoid shipping in hottest summer months (especially Southern USA and Desert SW USA). Settling will occur if it ships in a hot month so it may appear less full but weigh it, and you'll see it is the 42 Ounces as advertised. If it was shipped sitting on its side and in heat, it may have a weird low spot on the top but only down one side of the can (that was on top as it set in heat). It can be stored in a refrigerator, but it is not necessary if you use it frequently enough to avoid it going rancid. If you want to pan fry food, use this like adding butter to your cooking oil. Not everyone can afford to use 100% Tallow to fry with but adding just a "pat of butter" equivalent to your pan-frying oil really makes a difference. For tallow's cooking ability, in your recipes, you can substitute in this tallow but I would only recommend a portion of the oil, so you should experiment with adding only portion amounts of tallow to blend with the oil you may normally use (Olive oil in bread recipes, as example - try half tallow, half olive oil). Dog Lovers - this is your go-to food additive. A spoon of beef tallow put in a dry food bowl and mixed in to coat the dog's dry food, can turn any dry dog food into the dog's favorite, and this has great fats a dog needs to maintain a better coat (we get compliments all the time about our dogs). Most dry food has protein but is low on fat and this is like a booster agent your dog needs. Extreme Dry Skin remedy of old: put very small amount on back of hands, and try on elbows and knee cap areas where you stretch out your skin constantly during a work day (once a month is a good at-minimum usage). Eating tallow helps those same skin areas from the inside-out, over time.
