all fats can go rancid.... now tallow may take longer than others but it'll happen
Whats the recommended or best way to keep beef fat, tallow, from turning?

FANTASTIC thread gents. Been doing intermittent fasting for a couple years but since I gave up running due to back issues my weight has been as very uncomfortable creeper....

Looking fwd to this, I'll second Yuka app.

Freezing will keep it fresh practically indefinitely, refrigeration will also greatly extent its life. Mine sits in a cupboard, but it will get used long before it goes bad. Takes a very long time for properly rendered tallow to go bad at room temperature in a sealed container. I know for a fact that it will last a year in my kitchen without going bad.
