You poured boiling hot oil into a cold glass like a dipshit. Any more questions you need cleared up retard?

Thermal shock.

My parents always used a coffee can, metal, so it's fine to add while hot, but understand it's stil dangerous to you, as it can tip over, spill, drip onto a burner that it hot, etc. Best to let it come to room temp before the pour. If you need the stovetop space immediately, I sometimes park it in an oven to cool, and take care of it hours later. I might wipe out a pan with a paper towel into the trash on top of some newspapers or something to absorb it, it still warm, and not solid.

Pour it into a tin can next time, retard.

Pour it into a plastic zip lock bag, as opposed to glass that can't flex and breaks

>>16017266
you just have a fucking tin can sitting around your kitchen at all times?

Use thicker glass or pottery.

if you're doing this again, run hot water on the outside of the jar for a minute or two beforehand.

Ive been saving bacon grease in glass jars for years and never had this happen, sometimes while the jar is cold right out of the fridge
Try using jars with thicker glass (used jam/jelly jars work pretty good) or you can try adding a bit of neutral oil beforehand to quench the heat

>>16017126
heat and glass causes air and air between glass to expand thusly cause breakage.

The next time you open a can of something clean it out and save it for bacon fat. If you don't want it sitting on the counter then set it in the freezer.

cheap chinese jar. get some american made jars and never have that problem. been using a ball jar for decades

>>16017126
Eww gross, why would you save that?

>>16017126
How have you made it this far in life without killing yourself? How old are you, 10?

>>16017533
For cooking?

If I intend to save rendered animal fat, yes you fucking idiot. Either that or a pyrex dish of some kind. You dont own a standard pyrex measuring cup? Why are you even here if you clearly dont even cook?
