@dgold Water, salt, bits of extraneous protein. All in all not very appetizing. What do people put up with it? Maybe you don't notice it if you grill rather than fry.
@jeremycherfas that, precisely. I can’t understand putting fatty meat into fat to cook it, it just seems so wrong. Grilling and baking are just, I hesitate to say better, and I know healthier is a bit of a misnomer. Not as disgusting?
@dgold As it happens I was in a borrowed house and couldn't quite operate the grill. But I will add in my defence that it was a nonstick pan and I did not add any fat. Provided you drain well, I see no problem with frying fatty things in more fat.
