- Lard and Beef Tallow
We've compiled a running list of Austin establishments where you can sample different dishes made with healthy animal fats, such as lard or beef tallow. We will eventually include establishments all around the U.S., so if you've got a favorite restaurant that puts lard or beef tallow on the menu, drop us an email at info@coastpacking.com and we will gladly add it to our listing. Or you can post an image or link to the eatery via Twitter/Instagram/Pinterest, etc with the hashtag #LardOnTheMenu or #TallowOnTheMenu and we will be sure to include those as well!
