Making Peanut butter on large scale. - 11/24/22 12:59 PM
My brother and his daughter were making peanut butter yesterday with a pull-behind grinder mixer. Yes , I was able to get about 1 &1/2 gallons of peanut butter for myself. I'm thinking about using it for varmint bait.

He's feeding it to dairy cows. I don't know if it's food grade or not to be honest.

If their feeding cows I imagine it's ground shells and all. Probably not best texture but probably only take heating it up to some certain temperature to call it food grade. At least in a third world country. LoL

it is probably healthier than what you buy in the store which has lots of sugar added to it + all sorts of other things...

They also add vegetable oil (seed oil) that will make your joints ache.
I order peanut butter that is just peanuts, nothing added. but I dont eat much anymore, since I dont eat bread. I do make my own Reese's. The dark chocolate too.

That's exactly what I've done too, Jeff. It's even bettah that way. I prefer the semi sweet chocolate, but I won't turn down any chocolate, either. If youre ever in a pinch in the outback, needing fast energy , a big spoon full of peanut buttah and sugar will carry you through til you get to fuel up with protein. It may sound extreme, but in winter , in a fix, it will get one through.

you do not need bread to eat peanut butter you just need a spoon.....healthy pb has just peanuts on the ingredient label, maybe 1% sea salt.

I have been teased nearly my entire life about the quantity of peanut butter I eat.
Brand wise; only Adam's Peanut Butter, the only ingredients are peanuts and salt. I've been eating Adam's since the early 70's.
All the other stuff is garbage and I'll only eat it if I have to; lots of sugar, industrial oils and stabilizers.

No shells in my brother's peanut butter. Skins and the actual peanut. The shells are separated for use in bedding farm animals.

Folks around here sell it 55 gallons at a time. It’s not food grade and is used for animal feed. The bear hunters used to use it to feed and bait bears but that in now outlawed if it’s been processed at all.
