Hi! I keep an old fashioned glass-topped mason jar by my stove for
this very purpose. The amounts of oil I keep are pretty small, and we
go through it at a pretty decent rate, so I’m not scared, LOL. Mom did
it for years – even with bacon fat – and we were an exceptionally
healthy family. Use your own discretion, though. I don’t let pig meat
in the house, anymore. – C

I pour it in a container after it cools and cover it. Wal-Mart sells
an aluminum grease container for this very purpose but a coffee can
works fine. Grease kept in an open pot on the stovepot is a fire
hazard so I would not recommend this and also bugs can fly into the
grease. Yuk. I don’t reuse oil that is used to fry meat but I do save
bacon grease for seasoning. I keep this in a mason jar in the fridge.
