It was what I ordered. It was securely packaged. It came in a reasonable time. It was expensive.

Love this Leaf Lard for baking delicate pastry doughs. My grandmother an Italian baker swore by Leaf Lard- her pastries were light and flakey with no porky taste.

I bought Leaf Lard as a gift for my cousin who was wanting to make a pie crust like our Grandma used to make. I had it shipped directly to her and it arrived on time and in great shape. Praise The Lard, the pie turned out terrific and got a thumbs up from her husband and his friend, as well as requests for a second piece.

I love to use your leaf lard to make my pie crust!

Fatworks is a bakery saver!! I have a bakery with my mom in Charlotte, NC. I use rendered leaf lard in my pie crust, and it makes it so much better than it would be without it. I just pre-baked a bunch of pie crusts in little pie tins last night, no filling yet, and they smell like xmas cookies when they come out of the oven. We don’t put any sugar in our pie crust, it’s just good fat and good flour. Our customers have said things like “that’s the best pie I’ve ever had,” “that pie is amazing,” etc. Without Fatworks, we couldn’t pull this off on the scale we do. Before I started our bakery I’d find a jar here, and a small container there of leaf lard to make pies for my family and friends, but most bakeries use that horrifying, banned in some countries, hydrogenated oil (trans fats), so good quality rendered leaf lard just wasn’t available to order reliably in gallons before Fatworks came along. We bake pie all year long, so we need leaf lard when we need it, not just when the one local farmer with it has it (though, we LOVE our local farmers). A reliable source of this key ingredient is crucial for us, and that is what they provide. I can never thank Fatworks enough for what they do. We could not do this without them.

This leaf lard fries so lightly when cooking fried chicken. Doesn't feel as greasy as regular cooking oils. Adds a nice mild flavor. I feel so much better eating food fried in this leaf lard compared to refined seed cooking oils.

Fatworks saved my life! I was addicted to processed food-like items. Now I begin every day with Fatworks nutrient rich stable grass fed Goat Ghee in my French pressed coffee and end everyday with steak and eggs fried in Fatworks Leaf Lard. My metabolic health has improved dramatically and depression no longer haunts me. Health is in the Fat of FATWORKS.

I recently ordered almost one of everything from Fat Works to see what was best. And the Leaf Lard is the winner! It’s almost sweet but in the best way. It’s a real treat!

This burger made with the ultimate cooking fat might be the best burger I ever made in my whole life. I can't imagine my life without fatworks products now because it makes everything better. My great grandma always used to slice up her hot dogs and add them as a layer on the burger. She would have been proud of this burger and the hot dogs fried in leaf lard were spectacular!

Great quality and exactly as expected. This stuff is great for pie crusts, baked goods and frying. Will be a customer for life!

Raised in the Crisco years, I am new to lard. And new to non-GMO, ‘real’ food. Reading the 100 Days of Real Food led me to making (delicious) homemade tortillas and breakfast burritos. Which led to King Arthur Flour’s recipe for homemade tortillas. At first, I made them with butter. But, the recipe also suggested LARD. After much research, I chose Fatworks premium leaf lard and made tortillas once more. The difference is night and day. Soft, pliable, delicious. Easily folds around the breakfast burrito filling. I won’t go back to butter for this recipe. 100% recommended. Paradigm shifted permanently for this late in her 60’s cook.

I had received several pint jars and also a pail of pork lard. I did not realize that the pail had a crack in it. After we had used all the pint jars I went in to get the pail and it had leaked on to the lid of a 5-gallon bucket that it was sitting on top of. I contacted the company and spoke with Dave. Dave made it right, I spoke with him on Friday but he was out of town. He contacted me the following Monday morning and personally took care of the problem. I received an email from Dave Monday afternoon informing me that the replacement port for pale which is approximately a gallon would be going out that evening. I have received it In good condition. He also follow back up to make sure that I had received it and that everything was fine. I appreciate his personal attention and quick response to my complaint. On this one note alone I would continue to do business with FAT WORKS. On another note I would like to compliment the company that works on their excellent product of pure Pork Lard and pure tallow products. They also have various other products of cooking and baking Lard. Their Lard & Tallow has no other by products included in them. I certainly recommend that anyone try their products and I believe they will be 100% satisfied. Thanks again Dave, Archie Burson

Absolute best, most delicious fat to cook with that I have ever encountered! Fatworks for life! I will never go back to cooking without lard. It just makes absolutely every food better than cooking with anything else.

Fatworks - LEAF LARD is now my go to Fat for baking. When baking calls for butter - I use the LEAF LARD. It has no discernible taste of pork - so if you want a perfectly neutral tasting fat - LEAF LARD is superb. This photo is an Italian Cookie - Sbresolina - which calls for 6 ounces of LARD or Butter. Having tried both - the full Lard makes the cookie a bit more crispy which is what it is to be when cooled... and then cracked.

I feel that this is not a fair review because I should have read the label.... I didn’t expect that this would be flavored/seasoned with any spices, extracts. Not that it matters but in this case, I have an allergy to rosemary (I know! So odd!) anyway, I am unable to use it. BUT I love the duck tallow and bison tallow. So I am 100% certain that I would love this too, if it wasn’t for the Rosemary Extract

Fast shipping, excellent customer service, answered all my questions, great product, the leaf lard does not change the taste of what you are cooking.

Excellent product. I deal with blood sugar issues and this helps stop the rollercoaster of my sugar when I add to quinoa or rice. Will definitely be ordering more.

Absolutely amazing product!! I use it for skin care and it feels wonderful on my skin. It doesn't have a strong odor and it absorbs great! I will be buying again!

I recently purchased the Leaf Lard and received it within a few days. It looked and smelled amazing and we quickly starting using it. I’ve made amazing biscuits and pie crusts as well as using it in my cooking. My grandmother made the most amazing crepes and I’ve tried for years to replicate them with no success. My son and family recently visited and requested my crepes so I decided to cook them in the leaf lard rather than the olive oil or butter I typically use and there it was, grandmother’s crepes! Since I was trying out this company for the first time I decided to pay the shipping and just order one jar so it was expensive but now that I know what to expect I’ll increase my next order (and there will be many more) so that the shipping will be free. Thank you for this service, those of us that know the value of real animal fat and don’t own a farm owe you a debt of gratitude!

I've never purchased or used leaf lard for baking before. A recipe I was making called for using leaf lard in the pie dough. What an incredible difference this product made to my baking! The crust was the flakiest I've ever eaten. Even my family commented on the difference. Purchasing this product not only made a difference to my baking, but from the time of purchase to receipt of the product, your company communicated with me and the product arrived even earlier than I had anticipated. Thank you for a great experience and a wonderful product!

I use Leaf Lard all the time. It was referred to me by my nutritionist who said it's the best thing to cook with.

Was nervous due to strong smell. But crust was delicious and the fried potatos

Browned bison meat making a stew with root vegetables. Amazing flavor rich aromatic taste. Delicious!

This is the only lard I buy now. I use it for baking pie crust and making homemade mincemeat. The texture is just like making it from scratch from pasture raised leaf lard, but that's hard for me to get a hold of and so much work (and smells up the house). I'd rather buy this and save all the time of making my own. I also love that it comes in a glass jar instead of plastic.

Fatworks is great! They make high quality products no matter what fat you purchase. Hands down I recommend them every time.

Excellent for cooking. I've been using bacon grease but will now switch to a cleaner fresher healthier fat. I love pie crust made with lard. This is the best.

This is going to be the take away when I go visiting family this year out of State ! And I purchased a beef Tallow to take on the raid trip too so we can make more wonderful dishes even when at the Beach cabin !

I bought one of the Gallons and made a Rhubarb Pie recipe I have made many times before but this time Leaf Lard from Fatworks Changed the Entire Game from Well done to How did you DO that ?!
