🔥 Did you know we fry and finish everything at The Kakery @ Stonehouse in 100% beef tallow? 🐄🔥
We know… it’s not the cheapest choice. But we believe it’s the best choice.
So what exactly is beef tallow?
Beef tallow is a traditional cooking fat made by slowly rendering high-quality beef fat until it becomes a clean, stable, flavorful cooking oil. It’s a process that has been used for generations — long before many of today’s highly processed cooking oils existed.
Unlike many modern seed oils that require heavy processing, refining, and chemical extraction, beef tallow is a simple ingredient made through a natural process.
Why do we choose tallow?
✨ Flavor: Beef tallow brings a rich, savory depth that enhances the food instead of masking it. It’s one of the reasons our smoked-then-fried wings have that unforgettable crunch and flavor.
✨ Performance: Tallow has a high smoke point and holds up well under heat, making it an excellent choice for frying. It helps create that crispy outside while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
✨ Tradition: Some of the best kitchens throughout history relied on animal fats because they worked. We believe there’s a reason those traditions stuck around.
✨ A better alternative to highly processed oils: Many commercial seed oils are made through extensive industrial processing. We choose a fat that is minimally processed, stable, and aligns with the way we want to cook.
At The Kakery @ Stonehouse, we don’t cut corners. From the smoker to the fryer, every detail matters.
It may cost us more.
It may take more intention.
But when it comes to the food we serve our family, friends, and community…
We’re always going to choose quality over convenience. ❤️🔥
We invite you to come taste the difference!!! 🫶🏼
