I have been told that all southerns save grease in jars to make gravy and stuff. I know this is North Carolina but that is considered in the south too isn’t it. I am sure there must be a book out there “101 uses for a jar of grease”.

sorry but this will shortly be put a stop to, this type of grease is just as harmful as smoking tobacco, anyone using it in cooking will likewise be penalized. /s/

I save bacon grease. I use it to flavor my beans, gravy, and fry pork chops. I love to use it to fry up scrambled eggs and make my own version of country style eggs benedict.

Oh ...I live in the North too.

For those who might be interested:

Two slices of homemade sourdough bread toasted
Top with 3 to 4 slices of pepper bacon
Top with two eggs over easy
Layer on a bit of shredded cheddar cheese

Forget the “hollandaise” sauce, try this one instead

After frying the bacon toss in diced onions and tomatoes to the bacon grease. Saute to release juices. Add a large pinch of flower and stir in to make a rue. Next add milk. Bring to a boil stirring constantly, then turn off burner and allow to thicken. Pour over eggs. (Variation add 1/4 brick of cream cheese)

During WWII we saved it and gave it to the war effort - you can make explosives out of the stuff.
