Grease is, well, messy. Though some of the best foods require a bit of oil and frying here and there, the cleanup isn't fun. Grease is thick, filled with impurities, and can clog your drains if you dispose of it improperly. Plus, a lot of the time you'll want to save and reuse the grease, too—especially if it's from rendered bacon. Thankfully, products like the Fox Run Grease Container are designed to make cleaning up and storing grease a breeze. Bonus: It's actually stylish, and you can score it at a discount. 

The container is made of high quality porcelain and can handle heat up to 392 degrees Fahrenheit. It's got a sleek, understated design and takes up little counter space at just 5 inches tall and 5 inches wide. Plus, the brand has cleverly labeled the container with an understated imprint of the word "grease," so its purpose is clear. It comes in black, white, and red, and  select colors are on sale now at Amazon for less than $25.

Designed to not only store grease, the container also comes with a lid and a removable strainer at the top to rid oil of impurities and food bits. To use it, place the strainer on top and carefully pour in the oil, then clean or remove the strainer and cover it with the lid to keep it fresh. Since it's dishwasher safe, you can save yourself the trouble of cleaning it, too. "[It is] so easy to wash and is very decorative and in style enough to keep out on your countertop," a user wrote. 

With over 2,100 five-star ratings, the container is a hit both for its style and functionality. One shopper even says it's the "best bacon grease container on the market." Though it's the perfect size for bacon grease, you can store any oil in the container that you may want to save or strain for reuse.
