The thin, clear layer that forms on rendered fat is glycerine.
You can mix it with nitric acid to make nitroglycerine.
Mix that with an alkali nitrate and something like sawdust or paper mush and -Boom!-
Dynamite.
I learn things when I listen.

Render the fat by boiling it in water and skimming of the stuff that floats to the top.
