Unless you are doing long-term aging, a 3-gal plastic paint bucket from Home Depot and a lid with a hole/grommet/airlock should work just fine.
If you only want 1 gal containers, the Rossi jugs will work fine. Plus, you get to empty them yourself. *shudder*

Haha I know..... That's why I'd render it down with sugar etc and make some syrup; think grilled duck breast
No long term aging. As an example put a gallon in secondary and add oak or peppers etc..... Just a thought ahead of an upcoming batch.

I'm guessing some of the smaller buckets from home depot are food grade. Just look for the right marking and no coloring in the plastic.

I'd be a little concerned about the lids on those jars. I have a couple and they don't seem like they are stainless.

BTW, they take a #6 stopper

No exact measurements. I make it in a large pitcher. Add the sugar and tequila to taste.
