I picked up that pejorative phrase from the Alan Lewrie series of "blood in the
scuppers" novels about the British Navy in the late 18th and early 19th
centuries.

Having been afflicted with cold lamb fat (and not boiled lamb, either) once I
can understand your father's (and Lewrie's) abhorrence of mutton fat or "cold,
boiled mutton".
