The phrase "the fat is in the fire" means that a situation has become problematic or is likely to lead to trouble, often as a result of a decision or action that has already been taken. It suggests that the consequences are unavoidable and that one must now deal with the fallout. This idiom is often used to indicate that things have escalated to a point where resolution or damage control is necessary.
