My mother did as well. She kept it under the kitchen sink. I don't know that I ever saw her use it for anything, though - I think it was more to have a place to pour used grease until she threw it away. You can't pour that stuff down the sink drain.

In fact, once as a kid I decided to cook something for everybody, and I used THAT grease in place of the shortening that was in the cabinet. Fortunately, I proudly explained to my mother where I'd gotten the ingredients before we ate it, so she knew what was going on and nobody ate the week-old bacon grease-filled meal. I was devastated that we couldn't taste my wonderful creation, but I definitely learned something.

My MIL actually uses that grease...over and over and over and over...and in whatever she can.
