When we first launched The Tallow Site as a two-person operation, our process was simple: hand-rendering small batches of grass-fed beef tallow in a business partner’s kitchen. We quickly fell in love with the creamy texture, clean finish, and versatility of pure tallow. But as orders started pouring in, it became clear that scaling wasn’t just about bigger pots and longer hours, it meant navigating USDA and FDA regulations to ensure every batch met food-and-cosmetic-grade standards.

That’s why we formed an exclusive partnership with a USDA and FDA fully certified facility. Now, instead of cooking in our homes, we work with professional-grade rendering kettles, stainless-steel filtration systems, and temperature-controlled storage rooms. Every piece of equipment and every step (from receiving fresh beef fat to packaging) follows strict guidelines so you get tallow that’s not only amazingly clean but also compliant with all food and skincare safety rules.

Our commitment hasn’t changed just because we’ve grown. Whether it was that first hand-rendered jar or our latest 500-gallon batch, we insist on the same level of quality: pasture-raised cows, careful fat-trimming, and slow‐and‐low rendering to preserve nutrients and remove impurities. By keeping tight control over our sourcing and process, we can assure wholesale customers, soap artisans, and home cooks alike that they’re getting the identical premium tallow they fell in love with, now available in any volume they need.

Running a tallow-based business isn’t just about making fat; it’s about honoring tradition, meeting modern safety standards, and delivering consistency at scale. At The Tallow Site, we’ve built our operation so you never have to choose between quality and quantity. Whether you’re testing a soap recipe or ordering pallets of bulk tallow, you can trust that every drop meets the same high bar we set in day one.
