 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    2      large         hard heads iceberg lettuce
    4      tablespoons   bacon fat
                         salt
                         pepper
 
 Cut each head of lettuce into four pieces, taking care that a portion of the ce
 nter stem is left on each section to hold the leaves together.  Heat the fat in
  a large skillet, put in the lettuce, cover, and cook for 30 minutes, or until 
 the lettuce is tender.  If much liquid is drawn out of the lettuce, discard som
 e of it during cooking.  Turn carefully if necessary.  Sprinkle with salt and p
 epper and serve on a hot platter.
