    I am concerned I will not have enough dripping from the roast. Could I cut some of the fat off and melt that down for use in the yorkshire pudding?

    First time making yorkshire pudding.

    Your other thread said it was 15 lbs, so as long as your pan isn't big enough that the drippings will burn, you should have enough.

    I draped some slices of pork fat over my roast and the pan was filled with more than enough drippings and it was about 10 lbs.

    I never had a shortage. I think the fat covering the meat in the oven is a good thing.

    I'm using this recipe, which sidesteps the issue by using bacon....
