| | | George Foreman....Fat?
When you use a George Foreman grill, the fat that runs from the food is gross. When it sets,its white.This leaves me thinking. Is there a way we could use this fat,for the birds?
Has anyone got a DIY idea,that could be used? |

Has anyone got a DIY idea,that could be used? | no, here is quote from the RSPB website about it hope it helps -
Cooking fat
Fat from cooking is bad for birds. The problem with cooked fat from roasting tins and dishes is that the meat juices have blended with the fat and when allowed to set, this consistency makes it prone to smearing, not good for birds' feathers. It is a breeding ground for bacteria, so potentially bad for birds' health. Salt levels depend on what meat is used and if any salt is added during cooking.
Lard and beef suet on their own are fine as they re-solidify after warming and as they are pure fat, it is not as suitable for bacteria to breed on. |
