My wife and my two youngest kids were in on it and of course CupCake the pig got involved. We had 3 crock pots and my sons induction hot plate going with my big dutch oven. We ran the pork fat through my meat grinder and then started rendering. I canned them all for storage. Pie crusts, biscuits, fish fries at the cottage this summer, Yummy! Wish I had some chickens to toss the renderings to, thinking fried chicken there.
