Place one cup of water and the beef trimmings in a stockpot. Cover.
Cook over low to medium heat until the fat has rendered down, around 2-3 hours, stirring every 20 to 30 minutes to avoid sticking.
Once the fat has rendered down, remove the large pieces of meat with tongs.
Place a few sheets of paper towel over a strainer and then pour the contents of the stockpot into it letting the fat drip through to remove sediment.
Pour into a jar, seal with a lid, let it cool down before storing in refrigerator.
