You Had Me at Tallow: The Secret Behind Our Sizzle and Self-Care
At Farm to Smash, we don’t just use tallow—we believe in it. Whether it’s sizzling our fries to golden perfection or nourishing your skin and hair, 100% beef tallow is the unsung hero behind so much of what we do.
Let’s talk tallow.
What Is Beef Tallow, Anyway?
Beef tallow is rendered beef fat—old-school, natural, and used for generations before seed oils took over the scene. It’s solid at room temperature, shelf-stable, and packed with fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E, and K. It’s also incrediblyversatile.
At Farm to Smash, we use only 100% beef tallow in our fryer. That means no canola, no soybean, no industrial seed oils sneaking onto your plate. Just real, traditional fat that brings the flavor—and the health benefits.
Why We Fry in Tallow (and Why You’ll Taste the Difference)
Aside from the rich, crave-worthy flavor it gives our fries and smash burgers, tallow stands up to high heat without breaking down into harmful compounds the way seed oils do. That means less oxidation, fewer free radicals, and a cleaner taste.
Translation? Fries that are not only tastier, but also easier on your body.
We fry like it’s 1955—because some things were just better back then.
FTS Wellness: Tallow Beyond the Kitchen
Our love for tallow doesn’t stop at the fryer. With FTS Wellness, we’ve taken the same high-quality beef tallow and created our Tallow Body & Hair Cream. It’s whipped with care and blended with rosemary essential oil (a natural preservative) and lavender essential oil for a soft, calming scent.
Here’s why your whole body will thank you:
For Hair:
Tallow closely mimics the natural oils produced by your scalp, helping to moisturize, protect, and restore shine without leaving it greasy. Bonus: rosemary oil is known to promote hair growth.
For Face:
Rich in nourishing fats and vitamins, tallow helps soothe inflammation, reduce dryness, and support skin barrier function. It’s great for sensitive or acne-prone skin, thanks to its natural compatibility with human sebum.
For Body:
Think deep hydration without the chemicals. Our whipped tallow cream absorbs beautifully into the skin, leaving it soft, supple, and smooth. No fillers. No parabens. Just real, old-fashioned nourishment.
The Heart of What We Do - Why Tallow Matters
Tallow is timeless. It’s one of the most natural, nutrient-dense fats available, and we love that it allows us to bring flavor, quality, and wellness to every part of your day.
From crispy fries to creamy moisturizers, beef tallow is the heart of what we do at Farm to Smash.
Come taste the difference. And maybe take home a jar for your bathroom shelf, too.
We’re all-in on tallow—and once you try it, you just might be too.
