What Is Wagyu Tallow (And Why Your Skillet Will Thank You)

Not all fats are created equal—and once you’ve cooked with Wagyu beef tallow, there’s no going back.

At Five Oaks Farm, we’ve taken the same premium Wagyu we’re known for and rendered down the fat to create a clean, versatile, jarred cooking fat that deserves a spot right next to your cast iron.

1. So… What Exactly Is Tallow?

Tallow is rendered beef fat—slow-cooked and filtered until it becomes a rich, shelf-stable oil that solidifies at room temp. Think of it as butter’s beefier cousin.

But this isn’t just any tallow. Ours comes from grain-finished Wagyu cattle raised with purpose right here on our farm.

2. Why Cooks (and Skillets) Love It

• High Smoke Point – Unlike olive oil or butter, tallow can handle the heat. Perfect for searing steaks, roasting veggies, or frying eggs.

• Incredible Flavor – Adds a subtle, beefy richness without overpowering.

• Natural & Nutritious – Packed with omega-3s and monounsaturated fats—the good kind. No additives. No weird stuff. Just rendered Wagyu fat. Ingredients your body recognizes!

3. Versatility That Might Surprise You

You can use Wagyu tallow for:

• Searing burgers and steaks 

• Roasting potatoes with insane crispiness 

• Frying eggs, stir-frying veggies, even popping popcorn 

• Conditioning cast iron like a pro 

4. Farm-Direct Flavor You Can Trust

We render our tallow in small batches, straight from our own cattle. That means full traceability, no shortcuts, and flavor that reflects the care we put into every animal.
