Premium Beef Suet Tallow

Having of late procured a quantity of the pure beef suet tallow offered by the worthy firm of Jas. Townsend & Sons, I took occasion this day to put it to trial upon a fine bison steak. The meat had been dry-brined for the space of two full days with good salt and grains of paradise, the latter spice having been brought freshly to my notice by the excellent discourse upon the spices of the New World delivered this past Lord’s Day by the Townsend channel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCjuqRLyUpk). In that presentation, the distinction between the true Guinea pepper—being grains of paradise—and the later cayenne was most clearly set forth, and I was thereby inspired to employ the former in the present preparation.
The steak was first gently cooked by the modern method of sous vide at one hundred and fifteen degrees of Fahrenheit for five hours’ time, that the interior might be rendered tender and of an even colour throughout. Thereafter it was taken from its bath and seared in a cast-iron skillet over a strong fire, the sole fat employed being the Townsend tallow.
I must declare that the tallow answered every expectation. It withstood the high heat required to form a deep and pleasing brown crust upon the exterior of the meat without smoking or burning in the least disagreeable manner. Moreover, it imparted to the bison a richness and depth of flavour that complemented most happily the subtle heat and aromatic quality of the grains of paradise already present in the brine. The resulting crust was crisp yet yielding, and the overall effect upon the palate was one of exceptional savour.
Those who keep house in the old manner, or who seek a pure and reliable fat for the searing of meats, will find this tallow of Townsend’s a most serviceable article. It is rendered from the pure kidney suet of grass-fed cattle, comes neatly put up, and keeps well. I shall not be without it in future.
The accompanying likeness shows the finished steak as it appeared upon the plate, accompanied by a simple salad of greens and tomato.

Excellent service, fast delivery.
I placed two separate orders and they were kind enough to combine the shipping for me and refund me the excess payment.

I made some stewed rabbit and dumplings using this suet, I fried the rabbit to brown it a bit in this suet then used what was left to make the dumplings, best I've had in a long time.

What more can you ask for? Quality product from a quality animal. Tad on the expensive side, but you can treat yourself once in a while or buy it as a gift for the right person :)
