the drain can have little a grease, as a treat
I always chug a beer/soda, open the top of the can using a can opener, and pour the grease into that.
NOTE: make sure all the liquid is out of the bottom of the can (maybe wipe it down with a towel) or else the grease may shoot back out

I briefly worked for a plumber during my college days to make money. He said the people who kept him in business were people who poured grease down the drain and also people who flushed tampons.
People who pour grease down the drain have definitely never unclogged a drain before.
Usually something like half fibers (hair, tampons, "flushable" wipes, etc), half grease and fats.
If it's a solid at room temp, it probably shouldn't go down the drain.

I've been pouring hot grease in glass jars for decades without having one shatter. You're severely overestimating the risks
I may be speaking from experience. I only pour grease into cans and foil now.

As a home owner, $360 to get my kitchen drain cleaned. No more grease down the drain.
Cost us over $200 to get a plumber to fix the drain when my partner decided to feed an entire jar of whole pickles into the garbage disposal.

Says people who have never lived alone.
Like you don't even have to be a homeowner to know not to do this! I know this is shit posting, but there ain't no way you make it to reproductive age without figuring this one dumb thing out‽
Newer generations and less likely to own homes due to global housing markets cooling down. This is directly proportional to the inverse of fucks residents have about plumbering.
That said I wasn't raised to know this until the internet taught me. Then I started freezing them in cans and tossing in the trash.

Step 1: Get chickens
Step 2: add oats ( oat flakes ) to the pan with grease
Step 3: stir until they've absorbed the fat
Step 4: treat the chickens
Step 5: ??????
Step 6: Profit!
Edit: formatting
Oh shit, thanks for the tip.

I have had this happen once. Cold jar, didnt let the grease cool enough... was my bad. Same as if you're going to put it into a metal can while its still really hot, make sure the can isnt sitting on something that will melt.
I think the best advice is "Dont pour the grease while its still hot enough to burn you"

I'm pretty sure everyone who says it's gay to wipe your own ass is trolling.
Definitely, but I think that Proud Boys leader who showed he could take a black dildo probably thought he was doing some really clever double bluff thing, but we see you Gavin McKinnes. We see you and the insecurities you're fighting so hard to hide.

that's the city's fault for banning private septic systems
Imagine a city where everybody has their own septic system to maintain?

Keep it in a mug by the sink
Every time the mug fills up, dump it into a pot of very hot water, give it a stir, pour it into a mason jar, seal it tightly, and put it in the fridge upside down.
When it's cold, dump out the water, scrape the thin top layer of crap off, and voila, you have perfectly usable high smoke point salted lard for frying.
If you fry fresh pork belly, save that fat separately, do the same thing, and you have pure lard.

https://youtu.be/WL_lS_FsMvkI didn’t get it. Now I do. Still, use that bacon grease in place of butter. Maybe add less salt. Now you gentlemen gonna buy some wigs or ain’t ya?

My compost heap is now 80% bears. Did I do it wrong?

If you're renting, maybe it's not your problem. The landlords jack us for rent, so we mess with their drains. Meh.
Should we respect our landlords, you might ask? That depends on them. Respect is earned.

Write that down, WRITE THAT DOWN!

Nope. Nothing oily that doesn't rinse away completely with water. Most people forget butter and peanut butter, too.

Have you ever cooked bacon? That's about the only grease I've known folks to save. Maybe some from ground beef if you're cooking up a whole lot.
Oh true, bacon grease does get used. Either in the same dish or you throw some toast in that pan the next day. But OP seems to be talking about a jar to throw out.
