The Beef Tallow Difference | Philly Shack

What Beef Tallow Is
Beef tallow is rendered beef fat — the same cooking medium South Philly cheesesteak shops used for decades before vegetable oil took over.

How It Changes the Meat
Beef hits the tallow-coated flat top and picks up a sear no vegetable oil can replicate. That's the flavor Philly natives recognize immediately.
