What tallow & beef fat is

The material itself — where it starts, what changes it, and why it still has value.

Tallow is rendered beef fat, prized for frying stability and increasingly back in demand for both cooking and renewable fuel. It comes off fryers, protein lines and cook rooms as solid fat or as hot rendered liquid depending on the process.

Because tallow trades as its own grade, keeping it separate from mixed fryer grease usually improves what you are paid for it.
