I was told 2019. And MLoo was in attendance. As I am told, were you.

Never understood that myself. I will, if there is a substantial fat cap
trim it. And if it's beef use it as tallow/suet after putting it through 
the grinder. Fat carries flavour. I generally don't ditch the fat when 
I'm cooking unless there is an "excess" or I think iot will get in the 
way of the texture. Even then I tend to recycle/reuse it.

      Title: Dirty Dave's Chilli Popcorn
 Categories: Five, Snacks
      Yield: 1 Batch
 
    1/4 c  Chilli oil/grease *
      1 c  Unpopped popcorn
           Salt
 
  * The orange oil you spoon off of your chilli that is
  excess to the needs of a good bowl of red. Save it in
  the icebox until needed. When it has cooled/set up it's
  "grease".  Bv)=
  
  Melt the chilli oil in the popping vessel. **
  
  When the grease is hot enough (350ºF/175ºC or more) add
  the unpopped kernels of popcorn. Shake pan occasionally
  to prevent sticking and burning.
  
  When popping has stopped pour into a bowl or paper bag,
  add salt to taste and enjoy!
  
  ** NOTE: air poppers will not work for this. A 'Stir-
  Crazy' popper works well - and you don't have to shake
  the pan.
  
  Have plenty of napkins handy. That orange chilli-flavored
  popcorn will stain your shirt or pants if you wipe your
  fingers on them.
  
  If you made HOT chilli - you will have very spicy popcorn.
  If you made a milder batch of chilli you will have nicely
  chilli-flavoured popcorn with a moderate bite.
