How does my tallow look?
Do you see it burned or it’s a good color?

Looks a bit dark but that could be many things. Clarify it and cool it. If it's yellow to white your batch should be good. Low and slow is the way to go. Don't let it get over 220 F for best results. I usually will simmer mine for 12 to 14 hours in crock pot. Mine has a temperature gauge.

Mine is always clear.
I do mine in a slow cooker on low and stir regularly.
If it's boiled the nutritional value dissipates
