Beef Tallow Costco Lists Right Now

These products had live pages on Costco’s sites when this guide was written. “Listed” means the product appears on a Costco site as of September 2026; stock varies by warehouse.

Some context on the lineup:

• Same-day vs. warehouse. Costco’s same-day site runs through Instacart and shows what nearby warehouses stock, often at a higher price than the warehouse shelf. It is the best quick check for whether your local warehouse carries a Fatworks 2-pack.
• Costco Business Delivery sells in larger foodservice sizes. The 3.6 lb Fatworks tub is the closest thing Costco has to a frying-size tallow.
• The A5 wagyu tallow is a specialty online item from costco.com. A5 is the top Japanese beef grade, so this tallow is priced as a luxury ingredient. It suits searing and finishing better than deep frying.
• There was no Kirkland Signature tallow on any Costco site when we checked.

Costco also sells foods cooked in tallow, such as Realgood Foods chicken strips cooked in beef tallow and Boulder Canyon beef tallow potato chips. They are useful to know about, but they are not cooking fat.

Fatworks Beef Tallow at Costco

Most “beef tallow Costco” searches are really about Fatworks, the Colorado company whose tallow has become a Costco staple. Here is what to know.

Which Fatworks tallows show up. The grass-fed 2-pack is the most common. Shoppers also report the Organic Grass-Fed 2-pack and the Wagyu 2-pack at some warehouses. Fatworks runs a Costco-specific landing page on its own site (fatworks.com/pages/costco-grassfedtallow), which suggests the grass-fed tallow is its main Costco item.

Item numbers. Shoppers on r/Costco have reported the Fatworks grass-fed tallow under item number 1898860. Item numbers can differ by region and change over time, so use them as a starting point when asking staff, not a guarantee.

Is it the same tallow as the single jar? The Costco listing describes the same product as the Fatworks 14 oz grass-fed jar sold elsewhere: 100% grass-fed and finished beef, Whole30 approved. It is packaged as a 2-count, which usually brings the per-jar cost down.

Where it sits in the warehouse. Usually with cooking oils and shortening, near ghee and avocado oil. Some warehouses place it in the specialty grocery section or with seasonal items when it first arrives.

Why the price can look low. Costco sometimes marks items down in the warehouse; r/Costco threads have discussed Fatworks tallow on markdown. Those deals are local and temporary, so they are hard to plan around.

For a full look at how Fatworks cooks, how it smells, and how it compares to EPIC and South Chicago Packing, read our Fatworks beef tallow review. Fatworks’ FAQ also claims the company actively tests its fats for phthalates, which is a claim worth checking if contaminants are a concern for you, since most tallow brands do not publish testing.

What to Check on the Label

Costco’s tallow selection is small, but the labels still differ in ways that matter.

One ingredient. Fatworks lists beef tallow as the only ingredient. That is what you want in a cooking tallow.

Grass-fed and grass-finished. The Fatworks grass-fed listing says “100% grass-fed and finished.” That is a stronger claim than “grass-fed” alone, which can include grain finishing. More on why it matters in our grass-fed vs. grain-fed tallow guide.

Organic. The Fatworks Organic 2-pack carries USDA Organic certification. The standard grass-fed jar does not. Organic certification covers feed, antibiotics, and hormones; it does not change how the tallow cooks.

Wagyu grade. Fatworks Wagyu uses American Wagyu fat. The costco.com A5 tallow claims Japanese A5 grading. Both are richer and softer than regular beef tallow because wagyu fat has more monounsaturated fat. That matters for flavor, not for how well it fries.

Color. The A5 listing notes its tallow can range from ivory to amber. Color varies with the animal’s diet and the rendering temperature. See our beef tallow color guide for what different shades mean.

Costco vs. Sam’s Club vs. Buying Online

Sam’s Club lists South Chicago Packing Angus Beef Tallow (11.5 oz, 2-pack), which is its closest match to the Costco Fatworks 2-pack. If you have both memberships, compare per-ounce price on the shelf tags.

The same Fatworks products are on Amazon, which helps if your warehouse is out of stock or you do not have a membership:

• Fatworks Grass-Fed Beef Tallow 14 oz
• Fatworks Organic Grass-Fed Beef Tallow 14 oz
• Fatworks American Wagyu Tallow 14 oz

For frying volume without a business account, look at the South Chicago Packing Wagyu 42 oz tub or the Cornhusker Kitchen Grass-Fed Beef Tallow 7.5 lb. Our best beef tallow for deep frying guide covers how much tallow a fryer or Dutch oven needs. Check current price everywhere; the Costco 2-pack is often a strong deal when it is on the shelf.

Who should buy at Costco

• You already have a membership and your warehouse stocks the Fatworks 2-pack.
• You use one or two jars a month for searing, roasting, and eggs.
• You want to try wagyu tallow in a 2-pack format.

Who should buy online

• Your warehouse does not carry tallow, or it keeps selling out.
• You fry in volume and need tubs or pails.
• You want South Chicago Packing, Cornhusker, or a brand Costco does not stock.

Not a Costco member? Our guides to beef tallow at Whole Foods and beef tallow at Walmart cover those stores, and the beef tallow near me guide covers butchers, ranches, and farmers markets by state.

Does Costco have organic beef tallow?

A third-party Costco price tracker has recorded Fatworks Organic Grass-Fed Beef Tallow 2-packs at warehouse locations. It does not appear on every warehouse’s shelf, so ask your store or check the app.

Does Costco sell Kirkland beef tallow?

We found no Kirkland Signature beef tallow on any Costco site in September 2026.
