I buy beef dripping in tubs from the butcher - usually use a teaspoon when making a roast or a cottage pie. It never seems to change colour, or smell; so how long is it safe to keep for?

The other question asks for bacon, but there is no difference between pork and beef dripping, food-safety wise. Also see cooking.stackexchange.com/questions/18221/…, cooking.stackexchange.com/questions/37662/…, cooking.stackexchange.com/questions/17601/…– rumtscho ♦Commented Feb 15, 2014 at 16:17

I don't agree - the fact that the answer may happen to be the same doesn't make the question a duplicate.– Paul MichaelsCommented Feb 17, 2014 at 8:45

No, it doesn't. But the fact that the difference in context does not make it a different problem does make it a duplicate. Of course, it is a somewhat subjective matter, and while I represent the community, it doesn't seem that others have felt compelled to take a look at the question (and possibly dispute my decision). So I decided to open a Meta discussion. I explained my reasoning in there, and I am interested in what the community has to say. You are welcome to make your case there too. meta.cooking.stackexchange.com/questions/1876/…– rumtscho ♦Commented Feb 21, 2014 at 13:44
