RE: Rinse Browned Ground Beef to Remove Excess Fat
I have been doing this for years. Funny thing, I keep having drain 'issues' and clogs. The guy that works on it for me found out I was using hot water to make it go down the drain & he told me that really does not help it go down the drain at all. Long story short. It's not fun when it catches up with you and actually backs the grease up in your bath tub. Anyway, strain the grease... great idea! Just DO NOT RUN IT DOWN THE DRAIN. trust me! =o)

Never put any type of grease or grease residue in your drain. As you know, it doesn't take much for that grease to solidify. It will coat the inside of your drain pipes and maybe even clog them up. Also, its not good for your septic tank or sewer connection. It's just not a good idea.
My family drains off grease and puts it into the garbage can. Thanks for sharing your good idea.

I do the same thing. I add a little water and freeze the cooked ground beef in a bag with no air. I do it in big batches. It is great to pull out a pound of precoked beef to start a meal.

I would not pour grease down the drain as it can harden and then clog the pipes....I spoon out the grease out of the pan and t hen put it in a jar and it hardens and then I throw it in the trash that way.....
