FAQs about pork fat

Pork fat can be used to baste other meats or drizzle over vegetables to make them tastier. It's also excellent for use in a warm vinaigrette. If you bought pork fat with the skin on, you can cut up the skin and make it into pork cracklings, a keto-friendly snack.
The flavor imparted by the pork fat depends on where the fat originated from. If you're using belly fat, then yes, your food will pick up a flavor that has a strong bacon taste.

Leaf lard has little to no flavor, and rendering removes what little flavor there is. The lack of flavor is what makes it perfect for use in certain types of pastries.
Yes, you can use pork fat in your sausage mix. Adding pork fat into the mix adds oil to lean meats such as venison and makes it tastier.
