We changed over to real butter 25+ years ago. We took hydrogenated oil out of our diet, except rare occasions, like cole slaw and potato salad - moderation is key. We eat eggs quite regularly. We try to eat lean cuts of beef, but pot roast is one of my weaknesses. I’m an expert in southern bbq, so there’s that weakness too. I make homemade lemon custard ice cream for dessert in an awesome Cuisinart ice cream maker. Life is good.
Southern bbq pretty much renders out most of the fat. That’s why things are tender, you render out the fat and connective tissue, low and slow.
