3-4 cups of lard a week? That's an amazing amount of bacon weekly. When I cook a pound of bacon, I save the lard and get about a cup to a cup and a half of rendered, clean lard. That said, I fry our eggs in lard and make grilled cheese sandwiches with it. Potatoes are amazing, and even sometimes we'll throw some lard with some green beans and finish with a squeeze of lemon.
