Coast Packing Co. marks National Beef Tallow Day with 13 Days of Tallow series
Coast Packing Co. and the Healthy Fats Coalition invite restaurants, chefs and consumers to celebrate National Beef Tallow Day July 13.

Coast Packing Co., a supplier of animal fat shortenings, and the Healthy Fats Coalition are inviting restaurants, chefs and consumers to celebrate National Beef Tallow Day July 13.
Established in 2018 by the Healthy Fats Coalition, National Beef Tallow Day was created to spotlight traditional animal fats. Timed to coincide with National French Fry Day, the observance celebrates beef tallow’s role in flavor, frying performance, cooking heritage and more sustainable use of animal-based ingredients.
“National Beef Tallow Day is a chance to celebrate real flavor and reconnect consumers, chefs and operators with a cooking fat that has been trusted for generations,” said Greg Hozinsky, corporate chef of Coast Packing Co. “From French fries and grilling to restaurant frying programs, beef tallow continues to earn renewed attention because it delivers both performance and taste.”
To help mark the occasion, Coast Packing Co. is rolling out several beef tallow-focused resources and activities throughout July, including its 13 Days of Tallow series, annual Beef Tallow French Fries Contest, beef tallow recipes and National Grilling Month tips.
Consumers can also explore Coast Packing’s TasteMap, a growing directory of restaurants cooking with Beef Tallow and Lard, along with resources for bringing beef tallow into the home kitchen.
“As a company with more than 100 years of experience in traditional animal fats, Coast has long understood what Beef Tallow brings to the table: flavor, performance and a connection to how great food has been made for generations,” said Eric R. Gustafson, CEO of Coast Packing Co., and a founding member of the Healthy Fats Coalition. “National Beef Tallow Day gives people an easy way to taste the difference for themselves.”
