Bacon grease for bait?

What are your thoughts on bacon grease for bait? Ever use it? If so, was it good by itself, or did it work better as a base with other goodies mixed in with it? The wife just handed me a pint jar of it that has been by the stove for a a month or so to throw away. And being that I am a natural born cheap skate, I’m thinking it’s bound to be good for trapping bait! … Your thoughts?
