    left over peanut oil from frying Turkey

    I wanted to tap into the GS braintrust for this one... I fried a couple of birds for Turkey Day, filtered the grease and put it back into their containers... Do I need to put the containers in the freezer if I want to use the grease again for next year (or sometime in btwn) or is storing the grease in their original containers good enough if I can keep them at room temp inside the house??? Bad idea to store it in the garage for a long time??? Thx in advance for your help with this one... Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving...

      Freeze it but remember to set it out way before you plan on using it again. If you think you will cry a couple more for Christmas in the house would be fine.

          We reuse grease all the time and have never froze it. What's the advantage?

            all the organic matter can spoil, and the grease gets rancid quicker if not frozen.

              If you decide to ditch it put it on Craigslist for free and I bet a biodiesel dude will pick it up. I did it last year and it was gone in an hour.

                Filter it, re-bottle and store in a cool/dark place, prior to reuse, heat to 350 and burn it off, it should last almost foreve. The filter will remove the organic matter.

                  Send it to me for bear bait

                  The filtering works fine

                    Peanut oil I filter and save, no freezing required. Grease will get rancid so I dump it

                      any and all oils will get rancid. storing in a cool dark place helps. the coolest, darkest place i know of is a freezer.
