Hello, I’ve made beef tallow twice but usually in a pot, and I thought I’d try making it it in an instant pot, I rendered it maybe 20 times and then finally put it into this bowl. I woke up this morning to see that this happend. Is that the gelatin? Or is this impurities that somehow didn’t filter?

    Yes the fat separating from other liquids is normal

    Pull out puck, scrape the jelly off, and you’re good to go.

  3. If you want that tallow to last I would recommend separating the liquid and using that in a stew asap. Then render down the tallow again just above boiling to drive out all the moisture. Then pouring off the clean fat and leaving the impurities and burnt bits while it is still warm. This will last forever in the freezer. But the moisture in there will go off after some time.
