OXO Good Grips 4-Cup Fat Separator

 (81 customer reviews)

I positively love my OXO fat separator! It holds a good amount of liquid, but not so much as to be difficult to pour. The lid helps strain out the solids, but if you want your broth to be absolutely clear, put a piece of cheesecloth over the lid.

IMPORTANT - the little black stopper MUST be inserted in the pouring spout before you add liquids to the cup or the fat will simply rise up in the spout. The stopper creates a vacuum, forcing the fat into the main body of the cup. When you're ready to pour, remove the stopper and the fat will remain floating in the body of the cup.

This cup is made out of high-quality plastic and washes up well in the dishwasher. It doesn't stain when you wash it with the tomato sauces! I've used mine for a couple of years and it's as good as new. I wouldn't make gravy or broth without it.

This is a nice big separator. It holds four cups and it has a wide mouth so it's easier to fill. It's lightweight and has a great OXO handle. I found it easy to use and it did the job well. It's dishwasher safe too. The strainer on top does let a few small solids come through, but a piece of cheesecloth easily solves this. My previous separator had no straner at all.

I think this is the best you're gonna get.

By far the leading contender for lean gravy making! This separator makes separating meat juices a whiz! I've tried all the other products out there, and this one beats them all. It's perfectly sized 4 cup capacity handles the average accumulation of juices collected from a cooked bird or roast with an extra wide mouth for easy pouring. Like all the other OXO products, the Fat Separator has the same comfortable ergonomic grip.
