How to make Bear Grease & What is Bear Grease for?

If you haven't tried out Bear Grease, you really should!! Bear Grease has helped my family with pain relief tremendously over these past few years.

It all started when our daughter was just a couple years old. She would wake up almost every night holding her legs and crying in pain. The Doctor couldn't see anything wrong with her legs so we figured it must be growing pains or juvenile arthritis. We tried soothing the pain with many methods but nothing seemed to work.. Until my daughters Grandfather (Gelineau Fisher) gave us a jar of Bear Grease. He said to rub it on her leg when it starts to hurt. We ended up trying it that night, and sure enough, it worked! We were shocked at how fast and how well it relieved her pain. To this day, our family still uses Bear Grease. Its our families #1 pain reliever.

HOW TO MAKE BEAR GREASE or RENDERING BEAR FAT

To make Bear Grease you will need fat from a Black Bear. My family doesn't hunt Bear but we happen to be lucky enough to come across a local bear Hunter whom gladly agreed to let us take the Bear Fat off his hands. In turn we gave his family a jar of the Bear Grease we had made.

Start by cutting chunks of the bear fat off . Try to get all the meat off so you just have the fat left to use.

Next cut the fat into smaller pieces so it melts better. If any small pieces of meat are left on, be sure to remove them. You don't want any meat mixed into it.

Put the Bear fat pieces into a pot or pan at low-med temperature. You do not want to cook the fat you are trying to melt it only.

Keep an eye on it and stir/flip the pieces around to make sure it is only melting and not cooking. We had ours on the stove for about 2 to 2 1/2 hours.

Once most of it has melted, you will have lots of grease in the pan and the fat pieces will be much smaller in size. It's then time to remove it from the stove.

Next, you will need to strain the grease. Remove the left over fat pieces. Then use a strainer (small metal wire kind works best) strain the grease through the strainer into a bowl.

Then strain again and again. Add cheesecloth on top of the strainer to strain it even better. You are straining until there is nothing but liquid grease left in your bowl. I used a new bowl each time I strained it.

Once it is ready pour it into jars and let it sit over night. Then store it in the refrigerator. It will last a year or longer.

There are other methods for making Bear Grease such as adding a bit of water then separating the water from the grease, I have yet to try it.

UPDATE!!

From my understanding of traditional medicines, they are to be gifted or traded. As times have changed, it seems to be getting harder for some to receive the medicines that they are searching for.
