So, yesterday in wondering about how the word schmaltz made it into our vocabulary, I pointed out that schmaltz is actually the word for rendered chicken (and possibly other fowl) fat, while lard is the word for rendered pork fat. Keeping with this fat theme, what would you call fat rendered from beef (which is the same for fat from mutton)?
I know, I know. I'm throwing you off by asking non-pop culture questions. I like to keep you on your toes.

I think it's tallow. I should check Fast Food Nation. I think he talks about it there. Yum-o!
I call it DISGUSTING! :)
I think Trixie's right. If not, I have no idea.
Trixie is indeed right. It is tallow.
