Idc if this is dumb, I pour it in a bucket and when it's full I dig a hole in the back yard and pour the oil in there and bury it. I do this 1-2 times a year.

You're begging the US Army to liberate your yard.

Depends on the oil but cooking oil is organic material so it shouldn't be an issue.

It would get pretty stinky.

Honestly not the worst idea now I think about it. I have been using the paper towel soak method, but this could actually be less wasteful and easier on the organic composter. Thanks for the tip!

Edit: Ok so I dug into this a bit more (no pun intended), and seems its not the best idea due to the oil potentially seeping into groundwater.
