Instead of going to trouble of making cylinders of suet, I just spread the fat mix into my feeding log holes with a little spatula. It stays in the holes better than some commercially-made suet cylinders.
This used to work well with “Bark Butter” from Wild Birds Unlimited. Donna Scott Lansing Sent from my iPhone On Jan 9, 2022, at 10:39 AM, Paul Schmitt <pschmi...@gmail.com> wrote: Make your own! Easy with a double boiler. Plenty of recipes on internet. I use lard, peanut butter, instant oats and a wee bit of corn meal (to thicken it). No millet or other useless fillers. Better than smelly beef fat too. Any tapered mold works to cast the block. I use one of the plastic squares from a commercial suet cake and oil it for easy release.
