1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into even-sized fries, about 1/4 inch thick. Rinse the cut fries in cold water to remove excess starch and then pat them dry with a paper towel.
2
Heat the Beef Tallow
In a large heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, heat the beef tallow over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
3
Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add the fries to the hot beef tallow in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch.
4
Drain and Season
Use a slotted spoon to remove the fries from the oil and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat. Season with salt and black pepper immediately.
