[[Image:Tallow.jpg|300px|thumb|right|Tallow - beef suet after rendering]]
'''Tallow''' is a rendered form of [[beef]] or [[mutton]] [[fat]], processed from [[suet]]. It is solid at room temperature. Unlike [[suet]], '''tallow''' can be stored for extended periods without the need for refrigeration to prevent decomposition, provided it is kept in an airtight container to prevent oxidation.

Rendered fat obtained from [[pigs]] is known as [[lard]].

Industrially, '''tallow''' is not strictly defined as [[beef]] or [[mutton]] [[fat]]. In this context, '''tallow''' is animal fat that conforms to certain technical criteria, including its melting point, which is also known as ''titre''. It is common for commercial tallow to contain fat derived from other animals, such as pigs or even from plant sources.
===Uses===
'''Tallow''' is used in animal feed, to make soap, for cooking, and as a bird food. It can be used as a raw material for the production of biodiesel and other oleochemicals. Historically, it was used to make tallow candles, which were a cheaper alternative to wax candles.

Before switching to pure [[vegetable oil]] in 1990, the McDonald's corporation cooked its [[french fries]] in a mixture of 93% beef tallow and 7% cottonseed oil.
