cook eggs idiot

>>18642856
You can use it as lube

>>18642856
pour down the sink, it’ll lubricate your drain pipes to help water flow better

>>18642856
It can be used as a replacement for butter and oil

>>18642861
This, fry the eggs and toast your bread with the bacon oil. If you're eating bacon you don't give a shit about your health anyway.

>>18642856
Once you get a gallon mix it with sodium hydroxide water and make a meme soap.

>>18642856
to lube you gun to make more bacon. picrel.

>>18642856
toast a muffin in it

>>18642856
how can you fucks even afford bacon in this economy?
shit's $20 a pound now

>>18642856
pour milk in it and youve got american "gravy" !

>>18642914
go to a fucking butcher jesus wept

>>18642875
what the fuck is this? a bolt gun?

>>18642942
yes

>>18642942
no it is a single shot pistol that you can buy in Europe if you are a farmer to cull animals.

>>18642984
so a bolt gun

>>18642914
I have a job.

>>18642870
>If you're eating bacon you don't give a shit about your health anyway.
Vegan or boomer?

>>18642987
yes

>>18642856
Filter it through paper towels, pour it in a jar, and refrigerate it.

Then just scoop it out and use it instead of oil or butter when sautéing vegetables.

>>18642995
Enlightened.

>>18642866
I haven't heard that but it seems like it makes sense

>>18642856
hash browns

>>18643049
There's no such thing. You're just a dishonest signaller.

>>18643088
Don't care. I'm right, you're stupid.

Fry your bread in it to make the ultimate artery-clogging bacon sandwich

>>18643101
>Don't care.
No... you don't. You're not fooling anyone.

>>18642866
>lubricate my landlord's drain pipes for free
Not my problem. I'm gonna put it in a sealed container and put it in the trash.

>>18642919
this is correct
milk, flour, and bacon grease
right in the bacon pan
just turn the heat down slowly and keep the ingredients moving
if it starts to bubble adjust the heat down slightly
it comes out kind of like a mix of brown turkey gravy and traditional white gravy with the consistency of oatmeal
great on biscuits
*not cookies you dumb brits

>>18642866
I do this but live on the top floor of my apartment building so I'm also hooking up a couple apartments drain pipes that are beneath me

>>18643177
that doesnt make it sound any less vile

>>18643184
it's some real makin ends meet depression era shit but it is good
it's bacon based

Making things in the pan directly after, eggs are a classic choice
I usually let it cool, toss it in a container, throw it in the fridge, and use it as oil for my popcorn, comes out fantastic.

>>18642987
it is not a captive bolt. you load a .32 acp or a 9mm and put it against the animals head and fire.

>>18643185
i know what it is my man, im asll for cheaply made shit im british, i get depression food better than the brazilians, the idea of mixing bacon/sausage/egg grease with milk and then pouring it on scone/flatcake and eating the mushy mess just sounds utterly disgusting to me

It's fat you can just heat it up and stick it in a jar. It'll last for a years.
>>18643177
Biscuits and gravy is better when you add more protein to the gravy.

>>18642856
make candles

>>18643201
If you don't filter the tiny bits of bacon out properly it will quickly go bad in the fridge and make you sick.

>>18643214
If it lasts long enough to go bad you aren't living right.

>>18643232
I mostly cook with tallow and butter

>>18642856
some restaurants add it to mashed potatoes

>>18643272
I just made an improvised mashed potato + bacon dish for the first time last night.

>cut bacon up into tiny pieces and cook it up in the cast iron
>saute chopped onions and mushrooms with the bacon once it's about half-way cooked
>boil some peas on the side
>combine everything into the mashed potatoes and mix
It tasted pretty damn good, but would probably be even better with some gravy.

>>18643184
That's... literally just a roux. You're real new to this cooking thing, aren't you?

>>18643198
try it, make sure you season it well with salt and pepper

>>18642856
it depends how you feel about your landlord anon

>>18642856
Eggs, fried bologna

>>18642870
>>18643105
How to you have enough grease in your pan to do two slices of bread on both sides? Most of my grease is mopped by the time the first slice is done.

>>18642868
yeah. I used to collect it and butter my toast with it. makes it pretty cost effective to buy bacon.
and its great for sautéing veg

>>18642856
>How can the oil from bacon be put to good use?
Fry potatoes in it.

>>18642995
Well, anon IS correct. It ain't good for you.
Personally, I just don't give a fuck. Bacon erriday's worth a decade of lifespan. Don't wanna go beyond 60 anyway.

>>18644084
There is no evidence bacon is particularly bad

>>18644110
there's plenty of evidence of nitrites being carcinogens
of course if you can get nitrite-free bacon then by all means go for it

>>18644114
That's theoretical not real evidence

>>18644116
what would entail "real evidence"?

>>18644116
Nah heating up nitrates (w/e the source) next to protein creates nitrosamines which 100% are bad for you. I eat them everyday (in canned fish) but I also do a 72hr dry fast weekly to stem any potential cancer (via autophagy)

>>18644117
A detailed documentary by the renowned Youtube institute. Only believe it if it's sponsored by NordVPN, tries to sell you merch and blows your eardrums.

>>18642856
Fry your pierogis in them. That's the only use I can think of

Use to for eggs then use it to toast your bread a little, you can thank me later.

>>18642856
only if you use cbd

Mix with mayonnaise. Keep in fridge. Spread in avocado bacon sandwiches. You can buy it here in nz is it not thing elsewhere.
Pic is an avo I picked today

Pour it on rocks and glass and spread at the dog park.

>>18643101
This is your brain on sneed oils and soy protein

>>18643198
Flour + fat = roux. Roux + milk = bechamel sauce, a staple of classic French cooking. So just think of it as le bacon en bechamel. Everything sounds fancier in french.

>>18643323
yes
i havent been cooking for myself since i was 17
i jsut choose to use a random cooking forum for ?? just make up whatever you think it is im reading here for

>>18645759
>le bacon en bechamel

>>18643198
>bacon/sausage/egg grease with milk and then pouring it on scone/flatcake and eating the mushy mess just sounds utterly disgusting to me
As a burger, i can tell you that biscuits and gravy are one of the best dishes to come out of America.

>>18645764
At any point in time this board's catalogue is about 90% threads about fast food, ecelebs, commercial junk foods, shitposts, and /int/ flame wars. The logic that if you browse /ck/ you must be interested in cooking is not as sound as you think it is.

>>18645859
that sounds like your problem

>>18642856
I use it on anything I want to get crispy.
Potatoes and steaks are the first to come to mind.
My great grandmother uses it for all kinds of shit, but her homemade "chex mix" is fucking kino

Add it to this to make delicious and quick red beans and rice

>>18643198
Yeah, gravy on bread is disgusting, unlike a steak and kidney pie or yorkshire pudding

>>18646117
gravy on bread is great, i always have some buttered bread when im eating stew to wipe up the gravy
real gravy though made with beef stock. theres nothing disgusting about a yorkshire pudding though so i dont know what on gaias green earth youre talking about

>>18642866
Interesting. I will try this tomorrow

>>18646128
The joke is that you probably like gravy on bread and yet think some gravy on bread you've never seen in person, let alone tried, is gross for no reason whatsoever

>>18646131
i never once indicated i wouldnt be willing to try it and renounce my opinion if its been changed

>>18646137
Ok, well looks like one of us is flying across the Atlantic. From which village, town, or city do you hail

>>18643183
Bro this was the fucking funniest part of city life. I had to stay in Chicago for a month and got an almost top floor unit. Id regularly boil noodles and then just pour in to the garbage disposal and run them down the drain. There were ALWAYS plumbers working on the first floor cleaning up water and snaking drains.

>>18642856

>>18642856
I often strain it into a glass jar and then use it like I would a cooking grease.
It also works as a good butter substitute if you're baking a big home done Chex mix blend.

>>18642856
One big tortilla chip, used to have it a lot.

>>18642863
Don't do this trust me

>>18642856
Give it the birds, fat bombs over cold periods are great for them

>>18642942
It is a bolt gun.

>>18642984
It is not a pistol, it doesn't fire a bullet.
It uses a gun powder cartridge to slam a rod through an animals skull causing to flop around on the floor dead for a while.

I use a cash special brand and a blitz tube bolt gun to euthanize animals.

t. farmer.

I'm actually using some right now to make roasted potatoes. I think I let them boil a bit too long, though.

>>18643323
The milk makes it.... baconchamel?

>>18647409
Sprinkle in some seeds in once it's starting to solidify again, maybe stir in a spoonful of one-ingredient peanut butter and some chilies to keep the other critters away. The chickadees and cardinals love that shit.

WTF that sounds extremely dangerous.

>>18649990
are you saying animal fat isn't oil

>>18651502
Only when liquid. It's usually referred to as fat or grease, as it's at least semi-solid at room temp.

>>18651507
i just googled the distinction and you're spot on, oils are liquid at room temp while fats are not. fair enough.

Bacon isn't $20/lb anywhere that isn't a remote village in Arctic Canada or Alaska. Bacon is only $5.99/lb from the fresh meat section and even cheaper if you buy the vacsealed thin cut bacon.

>>18642863

Have your bowels ever been clogged with bacon grease? You should try harder.

>>18654912
they're pretty much unavoidable is the point.. it's like being scared of going outside because you could catch cancer from background radiation lmao.

>>18654916
no, it's more like using sunblock, sunglasses and a hat because you know prolonged exposure to direct sunlight is unhealthy
the fact that it's everywhere doesn't mean you should just give in to it, quite the opposite, you should do as much as possible to reduce your exposure to it

>>18654928
yes and only fucking faggots wear that shit lmao. Sunscreen is for the beach.

>How can the oil from bacon be put to good use?
Throw it out. Why are you saving copious amounts of bacon fat. Bacon, yes. Fat, there will always be far more than you need.

I have one of these and use it to capture all my bacon grease. I then use the grease anywhere where I need oil to cook, maybe mix 50/50 with oil. The grease adds good flavor and I use it so fast it has no chance to go rancid.

>>18655390

Behold, the two dumbest posters on /ck/.

How does it feel to completely cuckold yourself out of vital nutrients? There are ZERO, count'em, ZERO studies which show a direct correlation between nitrite intake and increased risk of cancer. You're more likely to find a higher correlation between circus clowns and rapists/murderers. If they eventually do find evidence they are corollary, the correlation will be so invariably weak, you may as well cut out chocolate as well, which contains cadmium, and has directly shown to cause various cancers.

Get FUCKED, you god damn pretentious faggot.

>>18642914
Really. Meijer meat counter near me has it for $6.99. Even the local butcher is in that range.

>>18655943
Nitrites are fine on their own but not when they are heated next to protein screating nitrosamines. Nasty stuff desu

>>18655390

>>18655943
you know what, you're right. I started looking for some sort of proof that linked processed meats with cancer and everything comes back to that one WHO announcement from 2015 that claims processed meats *may* be carcinogenic, a claim that is not based on specific experiments but rather just some correlations between people who eat meat and people who have cancer
so yeah, pretty flimsy stuff

Do Amerisharts really?

>>18643177
Sounds fucking stomach churning. Also:
>biscuits
>*not cookies you dumb brits
Please remember the English language is partly descended from Latin. Look up "cookies" in Italian for a little guide on that. "Cookies" is really cute though. Sounds like something a toddler would say (which explains a lot about the intelligence of the average shart-mutt).

This >>18642870 is the true answer. Alternatively you can do what my dad and uncle did growing up, they would pour sugar on bacon or meat grease then dip bread in it and eat it.

>>18642856
eggs and toast right after, or save it for carbonara

>>18642856
Strain it and keep it for cooking whatever. Alternatively, get some hamburger and make hamburger steak. Deglaze the juice from the bacon and beef with fortified wine with onions and maybe mushrooms (I don't really use mushrooms unless I have them on hand) with garlic and whole black peppercorns (nobody keeps green peppercorns) and A1.

i cooked bacon for the first time yesterday and i was surprised how much oil it produced

>>18656205
It is effectively a rue, but with bacon grease instead of butter or oil. A very common concoction.

>>18656205
The irony of a bongaloid inbred referring to Americans as "mutts" while talking about language is not lost upon me.

dump it into the grill and watch the flames go

>>18642875
Use this on me please

>>18646510
fyi pajeets regularly dump oil down the drain

>>18647419
>causing to flop around on the floor dead for a while
Only for a while though right? It's okay afterwards?

>>18642870
Bacon is actually very nutrient-dense. It's an excellent source of protein, selenium, phosphorus, oleic acid, zinc, and various B vitamins

>>18642856
Filter it, warm it, and make the best hollandaise ever. Fuck your butter son, Imma whip some bacon fat into this here egg and leave the sauce in a warm place.

>>18657219
Yeah, we scrape off the bacon, give them a scrub, clip their hooves, and they're good to go in 15 mins or so!

>>18642870
>>18642870
Every time I did this it turned the egg white into this awful trash color that visually just looked like shit. Like yeah how shit looks isn't the end all be all but vision is a huge component on how much we enjoy food. Like 99% of his board literally hinges on MUH SLOPPA shit.

>>18658670
Are you burning your bacon?

>>18654928
Lmao white bois once again admitting to be literal vampires who can't go outside in the sun without getting blisters and sunburn and cancer

>>18656815
Inbred means the opposite of mutt. You're really very stupid, anon. Everyone knows but I'm the one to tell you. Say thanks.
