South Chicago Packing Traditonal LARD Shortening, 42 Ounces, Specialty Baking Shortening and Cooking Fat

Amazing product.

I've never cooked with lard or tallow before, only vegetable oil and canola oil, but wanted to experiment with lard after doing some research into seed oils. I was blown away with how easy it was to use (just melt the amount of lard you need in the microwave or on the stove, and substitute that for any oil in a baking recipe) and how tasty it made my baked goods. I will definitely be buying more and replacing oil in all my favorite baking recipes for this awesome lard. (Pro Tip! If a recipe called for "1/3 cup oil" I did a "rounded scoop" of lard [so about 1/3 of a cup, plus a spoonful or two extra] and that has produced awesome results.)

Purchased this because I am tired of looking at labels and needing a chemistry degree to figure out what in the hell is in our food. It stores nice, easy to scoop, melts almost immediately and is probably the best kitchen item I have purchased in a long time. Food tastes better, and cooks easily with it. I also bought the waygu beef tallow from this company as well for variety and that is also very tasty.

I was worried it would arrive damaged or melted completely but it arrived perfectly. I can't find good Lard in any supermarket here in my area. Most have BHT and other junk added that are unnecessary. I switched from garbage seed oils to Lard and love the flavor of the food and of course the health benefits (look it up before you criticize).

Clean lard, no smell excellent for making baked goods.

Good packaging and good product. Made Lardy Cake and it was perfect.

It arrived earlier this week and I just used it today to make wonderful biscuits. The taste is so much better than a substitute.

Just opened my Amazon box containing my lard order. It’s absolutely delicious!! I know my family is going to love it when I prepare meals using this lard. Will be buying again.
