How exactly are people cooking eggs where they need to think about smoke points and burning butter?

My grandmother used bacon grease or lard out of a can on everything.
Killed her at 102 years-old. Still had a good mind!! |

Bacon grease is the way.
Butter if I don't have that. Olive oil has a flavor to it that I don't associate with or want with eggs, but if it makes you happy OP, then go ahead. |

Butter flavor is about the best part. Some folks make cookies with olvie oil too - blech. I also hate olive oil mashed potatoes. Use grape seed oil and throw a pat of butter in near the end for a much better experience.

For high temp frying, I use Avocado oil. For medium to low cooking, I use olive oil, with certain exceptions. Eggs especially, I use a small amount of butter. Once the bottom starts to turn white I add a tablespoon of water and cover for about 3 minutes. Eggs come out tender perfect with a touch of butter flavor. None of that crunchy crap.

I stay away from most saturated fats. Yea, that’s right, I haven’t drank the keto koolaid. Olive oil is great for low temp cooking, it has no cholesterol. You don’t need cholesterol, your liver makes it.
It’s amazing the amount of health issues related threads posted here, along with braggadocious threads with steaks/fats/knives/gun pics. Most doctors will tell you that keto/high saturated fat diets can shed pounds and drop sugar, but your robbing Peter to pay Paul with your health. You can do all that without keto. Vegan diet is probably not the answer either. Somewhere in the middle is always the solution. Here’s another bomb, your body is better at using carbs than fat….. |

Carbs have to be processed far more than fat. Fat is converted straight into ketones. Carbs are converted into sugars and then into fat and then into ketones. The process of insulin vehicles carrying sugar to receptors is what causes damage to the coronary system in some people. The doctors that say fat is bad are bad doctors. |

Baaad stuff. Big tip. Eat for the day. Want to lay around on the couch? Eat for it. Want to hand dig a groundwork in a slab. Eat for it. Eat for the day. But don’t drink the keto koolaid just because your a do little fat body person that want to be thin. |

I have far more energy eating low carb high fat. Carbs make me sleepy and feeling beat down. Carbs drive up my cholesterol and triglycerides. My doctor still can't understand why my blood work looks so much better. I tell her why but the brainwashing that the sugar industry did decades ago is ingrained in their minds. |

heating olive oil up to frying temps chemically changes the oil and it becomes a cause of inflammation
butter fat is much healthier. so is avocado oil especially for frying |

Quote HistoryQuoted: heating olive oil up to frying temps chemically changes the oil and it becomes a cause of inflammation butter fat is much healthier. so is avocado oil especially for frying Frying in general is bad. I don’t eat fried food except the occasional chic filet. And avocado trumps olives in every way. Olives are a little high in omega 6 but way healthier for sautéing than butter or lard imo. I eat an avocado and an egg almost every morning as well as a bowl of steel cut. |

Instead, check how healthy things like hydrogenated palm oil and canola oil are considered these days, yet they were being recommended for years as a healthy alternative to butter and bacon fat. Sometimes, some careless doctor or scientist makes a reckless assumption, and then the whole industry just parrots the statement without ever checking the data. It can go on for years. The world of science isn't always perfect. Still, I think olive oil is considered one of the healthier vegetable oils. |
