Illogically Easy French Fries

Ingredients:

• 2 1/2 lbs. Yukon Gold potatoes
• 6 cups peanut oil
• 1/4 cup bacon fat

Directions:

Cut Yukon Gold potatoes into 1/4 inch fries, put in 4-qt. kettle, pour peanut oil over, adding bacon fat for extra flavor. Bring to full rolling boil. Set a timer for 15 minutes. Do not touch the fries during this time!

After 15 minutes, using tongs, stir gently to remove the ones that may be sticking to the bottom of the pot. Continue boiling for another 7-10 minutes. Drain on paper towels and salt while hot. The Yukon Golds work because they hold together the best and they do not need to be peeled because they have a thinner skin.
