7.23 Ounces
SwitchExplanation
This page answers the kitchen question in weight terms: how much 1 US cup of lard weighs in ounces. It converts cup volume into weight ounces using one ingredient-specific factor instead of a generic chart.
It is measuring mass, not fluid ounces. That is especially useful for baking, pie crusts, traditional pastry, and savory doughs where the ingredient may be solid in the jar but measured as a liquid volume. The mirror page uses the same ounce-per-cup conversion in reverse so both directions stay aligned.
