Great video. I want to use the tallow for a skin moisturizer. All of the videos that I have watched to do that use either a crockpot or stove top with what they call a wet method to get rid of the smell. I would DEFINITELY prefer to use my pressure cooker because it’s so much faster. But obviously, I do not want any smell if I’m going to use it on my skin. Does this recipe have the smell of beef?
McDonald was pressured by animal rights activists to stop using tallow in the 70s. It’s sad that we are now “sold” seed oils as healthy while the truth couldn’t be further from the truth
When you remove the lid, try not to tip lid so water drops into pot. Water is a no-no. The less you cook the tallow, the more you save the nutritive value in the tallow. I use the 1st cook for eating and further cook the fat for soap making tallow. If the tallow is dirty looking you can put it in freshly boiled water and stir gently to remove debris which will fall to bottom. Don’t stir too much or water and air will get trapped in the fat. Use a fat separator to pour off the water. Repeat if necessary to clean fat more. This video has saved me soooo much time. I dreaded the old crock pot method and this new way is not only quicker but less clean up as well. Thank you!
I tried this and it worked great but then I put it all in a pan and cooked it down more to make crackling and more than doubled the amount of tallow than just from the instant pot alone.
It's hard as hell to convince family to eat tallow. Here in Brazil we call it Sebo witch means something like grease from underneath the armpit. No one wants to try this precious food. Lots of homemade soaps though.
great idea, i love pressure cookers. instead of decanting i think i would just leave it on low heat and boil the water off.

i have several freezer bags of beef fat skimmed and frozen from my broth adventures. Can I melt them all together and further refine them for storage?
Do we let it naturally release on the vent? Or do we force it?
Have you tried ground fat? Thanks great video!
Is there any meat part left on the fat or is it just fat?
Do you 'need' to chop the fat up? Can't you just leave it in large pieces?
Is that the same way to do it if i use suet?
Will it be expensive if i use an LPG oven or stove? Is it also doable with firewood (no temperature control)?

That would be yummy on Ritz crackers!
What pressure? Hi/Lo?

how long will this keep? Wont it go rancid?
Nice video! I will try this.
After separating could you put it back in the pot and use the keep warm button to help evaporate the water? Can you mix beef and pig fat?
