Beef Fudge image

I have not tried fixing this yet, but I will at some point once my candymaking skills have improved. I really just like to tell people about it due to the novelty value! It is a recipe that my great grandmother, Winnifred (Bornholdt) Siewert Thiele, had in one of her handwritten recipe notebooks. She was of German ancestry and lived in Minnesota, South Dakota, and Montana.
