    32 oz potatoes
  • Put your oil in a large pot or sauce pan and bring to about 380℉.
    2-4 cups beef tallow
  • Once your oil is hot, carefully drop your fries in using a wire spoon until all your fries are submerged.
  • Let the fries cook until they are golden brown stirring occasionally. This will take about 8-10 minutes.
  • Carefully remove the fries with a wire spoon and place into a glass bowl.
  • Cover with half the salt, mix the fries, then add the rest of your salt and mix again. Make sure to do this step immediately after removing the fries from the oil so the salt will stick.

Notes

These are best enjoyed day-of, but they reheat pretty well in the air fryer.
