Crullers and Doughnuts

Ingredients

• beef suet
• 1 pint water

Directions

1. Cut beef suet into small pieces and place in a pot that holds about 10 pounds.

2. Add 1 pint of water and heat on medium.

3. Stir frequently after the first hour; it will take about 3 hours to render the suet.

4. Drain the rendered suet through a coarse towel and let it cool in pans or jars.

5. Heat the suet until hot enough for frying doughnuts.

6. Make the dough soft and cut it about ½ inch thick.

7. Fry the doughnuts for 5 to 8 minutes, testing one to check if done.

8. Drain the cooked doughnuts well in a skimmer.
