ROOTED IN TRADITION

Good ingredients.
A process we believe in.

The choices behind our tallow, from the source to the finished jar.

Simply rendered.
Never stripped.

We don’t refine, bleach, or deodorize our tallow. Rendering is at the heart of our process—a time-tested way to turn beef fat into an everyday staple.

Pure suet.
A deliberate choice.

We offer pure beef suet tallow for customers who care about the fat they start with. Look for “suet” on the product label when choosing your jar or bulk size.

Grass-fed.
Grass-finished.

Our grass-fed range is made with 100% grass-fed and grass-finished beef tallow. Explore the supporting references in our sourcing and documentation library.

Triple rendered.
True to tradition.

Our tallow goes through a triple-rendered process. Three rounds of rendering, with no bleaching or deodorizing along the way.

A NOTE FROM OUR FOUNDER

Some things never
needed reinventing.

Traditional Nutrients began with a simple idea: get back to time-tested ingredients we can trust. From the food on our tables to the skincare in our homes, we believe there is value in keeping things simple.

We’re here to bring those traditions into everyday life, one jar at a time.
