I probably consume 5 or 6 thousand calories in a average day. I keep on the move and burn a lot, having a hollow leg also helps hide it.
All beef burgers with sliced everything and fries eazy peazy.

Just what the doctor ordered lol. Thats where all the flavor is right in the fat so its gotta be good.
I think that's the gelatin, a proper chilled stock can NOT be poured (unless it's one of SY's veggie stocks).
Is it true that when you cool meat broth and it separates
(one layer goes to the top (whitish and sorta waxlike))
and a less solid liquid below, that the top is the (nutritionally)
"bad fat" and the bottom the "good fat" ?
I never take the extra prep day and eat it all ..... but maybe
someday 🙂

No the solidified gelatin is not fat at all but derived from dissolved collagen.
Is that commonly know as "fat" (in a derogatory sense) ?

Due to specific gravity the true fats rise to the surface and these seperators operate on the principle of pouring out from underneath them. Gelatin is very beneficial and not at all in the fat family.
So using the 'refridgerate overnight' method of fat separation
( pick off crust in the morning ) is nutritionally sound ?
AND !
Trashes the same fats .......................

Is that a nutritional device ?
OR !
Healthier to eat it all !?!?
It just makes better gravy... You can still use the fat if you want, but keep the stock/broth separate from the fat/grease when cooking.

It makes things like asparagus and corn on the cob done on the grill taste amazing. People that boil vegetables are totally missing out. Thats probably why they load them down with butter and salt or some other seasonings.

My dad showed me the freezer method for gravy, chill it a while and then scrape most of the fat off the surface after everything starts solidifying. There is enough left behind for flavoring but of course you dont have to remove it all. Not only does it add flavor it works great while sunbathing 😱
