I like to reuse bacon grease to fry things in, but if you don't, this tip for getting rid of it might come in handy.

Put a sheet of aluminum foil in your kitchen sink, mold a pocket shape in the drain, and pour the grease into it. When the grease hardens, lift out the foil, wrap it up, and dispose of it.
