Bear Fat.

[rabjr]

How much oil can I expect to get from about a 5 gal bucket of fat?The local butcher is going to save some for me.He said to render it in a crockpot on high for about 6-8hrs.Anyone else ever do it this way?

This is the second time I rendered fat, first time I ended up with basically Crisco. I learned a lot since then and render it in a double boiler now. But this did wok for me. :haha:

Then I'll probably use the low setting with a little water in it.
