Utilizing Resources Deer Tallow

[@sharonmcqueentorres2459]

Your wife is a lucky gal. You will survive many things. Thank you for the educational clips❤

[@miguelpimentel8539]

Dave I would like to say thank you for you taking the time and sacrificing your time and taking some of something that was donated to you for the Petfinder school to teach us something out here that will help us be self-reliant the video was extremely educational and I just really want to say thank you

[@timothystacey2999]

I love these vids Dave your living the dream I have dreamed since I was a small child I wonder some days if I didn't live this lifestyle in another lifetime man I just don't know but it is great to learn from someone who is so passionate with there career thank you all for the work you put in to this stuff

[@walkertonkidd]

Wow Dave. Thanks. Watching this video made me realize we need to learn how to utilize every part of a deer.

[@jhosk]

Made one out of tallow from a smoked brisket, it worked great but made me extremely hungry when I lit it.

[@Stimpaka]

mutton fat is tallow too. And I don't think anyone would refer to poultry fat as lard, but it does melt at a lower temp.

[@davidlee8551]

Thank you for the demonstrations ! Valuable information.

[@kolearian]

Learn something new everyday and luckily, this is something that's easy to remember.

[@shane0858]

Dave, nicely done video as usual man. Informative but not boring. Here is a tip that I have found works quite well when making lye soap: In a seperate container boil some fresh pine needles, about a large handful or more, the same method of extracting your lye. Twice is sufficient. Then use this water during your final cook down, adds a very nice scent to your soap!!! It does take a bit longer to boil down, but well worth it. -Shane

[@mirvha714]

It's like bacon grease, soft opaque white when solidified, yet clear when liquified.

[@godlikegohan2]

good stuff i learn lots of good stuff. from each of your vids keep up the good work

[@ozoffroader]

The best channel on the toobe.. Love your work Dave!!!

[@richsmout550]

wow very cool always so interesting, can't wait to try some of these. Dave as a tip for cleaning your white board if you use a normal pencil eraser it will clean it up like new, you can then clean the eraser with paper/card/matirial.

[@_Skunkfoot_]

Love this "Utilizing Resources" video series, it's a really great and informative series, great idea.

[@JRNY1605]

Don't forget Pemmican...one of the best high calorie/ long lasting survival foods. Awesome video brother.

[@milldabeast519]

another product made with tallow is those bird ball feeders. they take tallow and melt it down with seeds in it for birds to pick at and they love it. ive also been reading about it being good cat fish bait which i can only imagine would work great. it should stay on a hook fairly well may need some spider line

[@postjam]

these utilizing resources videos are fantastic! like all the pathfinder vids. even in nyc i get to learn about this stuff, and hope to put it to use in the future. thanks again dave and the pathfinder crew!

[@augustinsliverbane6183]

Dave, Thank You. This was great to find. To find that I could use tallow for more than soap was great.

[@Giorgiopozzer]

dave congratulations for all the work you do for us!

[@nerblebun]

@isaacbalwit Great question.Tanning hides would be a wonderful asset to anyone in survival mode.Think of all the uses. Warm clothes,shoes,blanket,liner for shelter, desguise for sneeking up on more venison. The list is endless. Like you fine sir,I hope Dave makes a video about tanning hides. Not just deer bur any hide,

[@snaponjohn100]

Dave, that was great!! 10 stars! Very useful info. I am going to start collecting it. God bless you, your family, and your Dream! John

[@ITReviewer]

Good job on useing the lighter Dave. I too often see "expert" waste minutes of time to get a fire started.

[@Zarthalad]

Really enjoying the vids again,Dave.

[@callijah61]

no. thats why its good for candles and such. i keep bacon grease in a cup next to my stove. it sits out, uncovered and it can sit there for a long long time.

[@rickyburton4642]

Dave that’s awesome 👏👏👍👍😃🇺🇸

[@Hutzjohn]

Thanks Dave another great video. I really like Ron Hood videos but I tell you the truth I have learned more from you.

[@Waldhandwerk]

Great class, fantastic lamp! As always, thank you so much for sharing!

[@TheTx2styp]

@JRNY1605 Amen...Number 1 use for tallow from any ungulate.

[@apar1560]

That amazing ! THANKS. ...Alan in 🇨🇱

[@danmo43]

That is really cool! I have been killing beavers from my aunt's pond and getting the fur and meat. I wonder how the fat would work for this. Wintertime beavers are thick with fat.

[@LoneWolfsVoice]

Good video. When I was young we would something similar to this with a clam shell a small rock and we would spin the cat tail up a bit to make a slightly tighter wick.

[@hobbyhomesteader984]

I just gotta say....Holy Crap, that's awesome! Thanks Dave for sharing your wisdom. Now when I harvest my next deer, I'll save the Tallow. Looks a lot easier than trying to render/ melt down bees wax.

[@crazymoo56]

Interesting and detailed video Dave. Thanks for the insight.

[@KrikitKaos]

There's another tallow candle video where he makes a mold out of wet sand. The resulting candle has a sand 'shell'.

[@SavageSniperGirl]

Technically, you can cook in any edible oil. Some oils will produce crispier fried foods than others, though. Density, specific gravity, smoke point, etc varies from one to another. Personally, I've never attempted to fry anything with deer tallow, so I can't give you a firsthand account of what it'll yield. That said, the cook's technique/skill matters too. I'm sorry it's not a specific answer but I hope it gets you, at least, a little closer. Maybe Canterbury will have the info.

[@jbr1074]

Super Vid Dave- damn you never stop impressing us!

[@catfishchic]

Wow, you have got some great information! I sure am going to enjoy this series. Thanks for sharing! Catfishchic

[@Atkrdu]

@Pat5725 You ssen that on Hedgehog Leatherworks, I'm guessing? Got an idea for a fire/sewing kit combo. Take one of those cards of sewing needles (like with the curved ones & whatnot), button thread, a needle threader, pair of tweezers (probably the flat ones), a sharp spike for an awl, & some safety pins. Put all this on a piece of headband in an altoids tin, fold over top, put in flint & jute twine, fold end over. Maybe extra screws (spetsnaz shovel). Won't mix up or get wax on everything

[@GotYarbles]

Great video, very useful knowledge!

[@captainpegs07]

This is my new favorite channel!

[@Ali.N147]

when it is solidified, yes. youll see solidified tallow in many of Dave's videos and it will be a whitish color when solidified. similar to the color of lard but if it isnt processed like lard, it wont be as white since it is more natural

[@draconist72]

Great video Dave. Keep up the good work brother.

[@MrJbrown402]

Awesome Dave. Going to make one for sure.

[@mattdrkzlli]

your awesome dewd ive learned so much from you over the years. many thanks

[@colljo7]

Thanks for your vids. Dave!!!!!

[@7theflyingman777]

Excellent Video Dave. so you can do the same with Pig Tallow also. good to know

[@kulyon]

i like dual survival, but you need to get your own show on discovery. you can call it the path finder school.I would also like to see a show on dual survival if you guys could take what ever you could carry on a hike for 5 days what would you bring. and put it into use.

[@albi131]

@karenchakey That's a british army bergen. I don't know what size this is. There are two sizes - short and long. Cheap, big and extremely durable pack. I live in Poland and used ones can be bought here for only about $30 (without side pockets). I don't know it's price in the States though...

[@sticknstonesbrkbones]

that is the same basic design of a Qullic, an Eskimo lamp/igloo heater, only the Qullic has a much bigger wick.

[@bradleyii]

im liking the videos man. Upload whenever possible these are awesome!

[@nowayduude]

Thanks a lot for the effort you put into your videos!! Good to see that you just didn`t leave us hanging while you became a rockstar :) Btw. If you guys don`t get another season then somebody got their head up their *BEEP*.. You and the hippie are one too good to be true and funny combo! I figure you`re not the one to stop doing this even if you`re making millions, so we`re cheering you on!

[@Danishbushcrafter]

That is the British army "Bergen"/Rucksack Dave, could you make a review on that pack? Cheap, robust and great for bushcrafters, since they can be strapped down to 45 litres from a 120 liter's maximum with the side pockets... Just a quick review Dave! Come 'on.

[@aaronkolatch5211]

Where is this guy? The surroundings seem to be a very natural area.

[@seanmulhall]

Great idea. I normally just throw the fat away. I wonder if the fat smells like the animal when its burning.

[@rileyphillip]

Cool. Excellent lamp.

[@CarlosPortoPhotography]

Thank you for sharing it. We can use any kind of fat to make a fat lamp?

[@nwood1311]

Great video Dave, looking forward to the video on lye soap!

[@GopanBushcraft]

another great one!! thanks a mil Dave

[@Pat5725]

@Atkrdu That's What I do. I cut many pieces of jute twine and dip them in "Gulf Wax" paraffin wax. I store a nice batch of jute twine in paraffin wax for future use.

[@howdydavis9016]

LOVE THIS STUFF, HOWDY

[@skookum_87]

Awsome job Bro.

[@mccullenj]

Great information. Thanks.

[@levimay2912]

Thanks for the video. Just made a lamp with beef tallow.

[@taski1]

Informative, but I wish the video wouldn't fade in and out

[@SwampRatProductions]

Great vid and info. I've been meaning to try this. That's one more thing that I meant to do in the Everglades, that boar had tons of fat on it. -Martin

[@HunterRyngo]

Dave, I'm glad that you came back to continue the old series of vids. I miss the lot that you had to take down... (Awesome T-shirt that you wear in this video, where can I find it?)

[@UndoneB4Broken]

dave love the new outback australia look mate! you fit the part brother. you would make a good bush ranger imo =P

[@Ruteger100]

Please talk about the smell it emits when lit. it's a very interesting odor for sure.

[@MRobichaud99]

Nice Dave!

[@Spacesqurreil95]

good information there Dave ! greetings from Sweden!

[@wewexteriors]

Nice, i am looking foreword to seeing the tallow candel.

[@MrDjaa2807]

This is like the best channel ever!! Subbed!

[@ActionHero29]

Dave, I LOVE this channel, thanks for all that knowledge you share with us. What is your pack?

[@hansbauermeister2088]

Awesome video. Straight to the point but very informative. How long does the unprocessed fat last for if it's stored in very cool temperatures?

[@lookoutpiano8877]

Why WOULDN'T you process it though?

[@ratlefty]

Now that's survival gold!

[@Ghost2743]

Deer fat is also incredibly healthy, with almost equal amounts of saturated, monounsat, and polyunsat fats.. and more omega 3 than omega 6. Venison ftw. ;Ghost

[@blackwinter35]

the solidify part is i think with all fats cuase i was lerning about stuffand charbohydrates lipids protiens and nucleic acids fell under that and lipids are fats and under certain tempuretures it becomes a solid

[@ClintonGalton]

❤❤❤ this! Great Video! Forsuely im subscribing

[@plumcrazy223]

good one love this.

[@mtower235]

Does the fat still draw in flies etc? This is an awesome product. I will be trying it soon!!

[@aletoledo1]

wow, nice information

[@Jenult]

Wonderful video, Dave! I learned a lot from it. If you dont mind, could I ask you what the story behind your "IRIS" tat is? If its personal I understand. Take care!

[@cudacade]

It looks like the pebbles in the shell are wet along with some sand. Does it matter if they are dry or wet?

[@jkgoet01]

definitely gunna try this, it seems like rendered tallow burns alot longer than regular candle wax, especially from your tallow candle video, keep up the great work! also how do we contact discovery on getting dual survival a third season, I couldn't find it on their website

[@ShepsAlmighty]

this might be silly but i know you've got bears in the USA and i hear that grizzly's can smell food up to 15miles away (so i hear) wouldn't having all your kit coated in deer fat be a bad idea? thanks for any reply

[@Izaana030505]

does this candle leave a smell? The concern is for closed quarters or for predators in the area?

[@saiaddict]

I NEVER NEW YOU WHERE IN A TV SHOW !!!!!

[@nlandoutfitters]

Odd question time, could you throw some stuff in there while rendering and get a candle that smells? juniper berrys, pine needles, something like that?

[@JohnSmith-fq3rg]

Ten years too lat but I got to womder about the pine needles since some evergreens are actually poisonous and I assume the smoke would be an irritant because of that.

[@washingtonboy1986]

maybe a dumb question but cotton balls work just asgood as cat tail? and do you have a video on pine pitching stuff?

[@MikeJones-yf2xx]

I use it in my hair! Cast iron pots to!

[@ITReviewer]

@TheFoothillsScout Exatly! Have a good day, and stay safe.

[@Atkrdu]

I've heard of people putting tallow on areas that were getting frostbitten to keep it protected from the cold or on areas that had a little frostbite to get it to recuperate. Any of that true? If so- how do you do it? Another thing, Ive heard, is to cover your scent with a layer of it on (like suntan oil). Also, with shaved off char from burnt sticks (probably, clay or something else could be used) to make waterproof camoflauge. Just rub with sand & water for removal. Cool shirt, I want 1

[@crowdog1045]

you should do a video on how to make them cool shirts you have been wearing in a lot of of your video's

[@sethzky77]

that's a damn good idea. thanks.

[@XolaSpectrum]

So sad ,I'm not have deer,But great information . Can pig tallow like this? Thank you .(Rattasak ,Thailand)

[@peacedude1176]

Will the smell of it burning attract bear? If you keep this in camp will it attract animals? Very cool. Thanks

[@joshgargis8945]

Wouldn't it be better to use something like some sort of clay in the bottom of the shell so the oil won't seep down thur it like it does with the rocks,seems like that would be better is there a reason you used the rocks dave?

[@richardhummell2497]

Let's see if I have this straight. Red meat animals (Beef, Deer, Moose, Buffalo) gives you fat that can be rendered into tallow. White meat animals (Pork, Mutton, Poultry) gives you fat that can be rendered into lard. Tallow melts at a high heat temperature. Lard melts at a low heat temperature.

[@KrikitKaos]

Also he uses braided willow bark fibre as a wick.
