I've been buying bacon ends and pieces for some time now, so I can render the grease for other cooking. I use the bacon for omelets, stews, and pizza but the grease is why I buy it. I usually get about 1/4 pint of grease from 3 pounds of bacon.
I bought a new bacon press a few weeks ago and have been eager to use it.
I got my chance this morning. WOW It doubled the amount of grease I got. I wish I had a few more of these to cover up all the bacon at once.
The one I have is modern, I bought it at GFS for $14, I have seen vintage Bacon presses with a pig on them. Is there any different designs I should look for? Please show pics of your cool presses.
Thanks Tony
