After trimming the brisket I was left with a plate of Beef fat. I really didn't feel like just throwing it out. So Instead I Decided to render it down into Tallow.
Big chunks of Fat from the brisket.
The fat starting to melt, and the pieces have been cut into smaller chunks.
You can see the water in the fat starting to boil off nicely. this was about an hour into it
Most of the water gone, and lots of cracklins visible now.
A plate of Cracklins, was scoped out of the rendered tallow. I poured the melted tallow into a pan of water to wash and its in the fridge to chill and let the fat harden on the top of the water.
After it hardens I will Re melt to get rid of the water and pour into a sterile canning jar.
