 The Goal is to get that shit crispy all over.  One of the reasons I like frying with tallow is the subtlety of the taste.  Once you make French fries in tallow you never go back.  Salt, garlic powder, perfection.

 I usually use duck fat for fries. Also great.  I’ve never cooked with tallow before. I’d like to try it one day.

 I bought a jar of duck fat, how long does that keep?  Tallow is basically immortal.  I should try to do some potatoes in duck fat tonight.

 They last quite a while. I've kept duck fat in an airtight container and it lasted for several months. It's generally cool where I live so they last a bit longer. I think they'll keep for a long long while when refrigerated or frozen.
