The great unanswered question is, how many recipes did Mrs. Florence E, Weist of Muddy Creek Ranch add a cup of minced beef to, before she found a winner? (or who ever it was as the ghost of Marjorie Main, that was this recipe maverick) "Baking some chocolate chip cookies kids, might throw in this left over minced beef" "A tad short on peaches, might make up the weight for this cobbler with a cup of minced beef" "I wonder if I can give this cake frosting a boost with a spot of minced beef" "Those varmints at the McKay place are looking a bit neglected, here run 'em up this big ol' jug of lemonade with the minced beef floaties"
When I saw beef fudge in the title, at first I was shocked, but them I thought about chocolate covered bacon, and it seemed less weird. I love that you made it into a bacon recipe! Bacon and bourbon... my fiance would definitely approve!
+Carpe Librum Yay! So glad you are enjoying them. Be sure to share on your social media because the more people who follow me and watch, the more likely I am to continue :).
And I always loved that part on Chocolat when they are feasting for her birthday with chocolate sauce dipped turkey, roast beef, roast potatoes and asparagus!
+Making It Modern OMG You are positively the most! I just discovered your channel (I'm obsessed with mid-century American recipes) and this is the first video I've seen. I'm subbing!!
Your channel is woefully underrated and under viewed. I really hope you succeed, this is a much higher class of content than is typically available on this platform!
Bethany, why not use the beef juices or gravy instead? Only because I don't know about the texture of the beef once cooked in fudge. Is it chewey like raisins or is it tougher? Was the flavor slightly savory/umami?
Just another example of how chocolate can make about anything better :D. On a side note combining meat into something sweet isn't too surprising though when you think of things like mincemeat pie.
Seeing this video actually reminded me of another vintage fudge recipe I saw on the Internet. It was a fudge made with Velveeta cheese. And in parentheses next to the title, it said "very good". ... I highly doubt that.
Making It Modern Hi there! You can find the valveeta fudge recipe on www.kraftrecipes.com. There is also another recipe for a very sweet tooth velveeta fudge at www.dessertfortwo.com. The last one serves only 8. The other one serves.... 48!!!!! And last but not least is the chocolate valveeta fudge recipe on www.thespruce.com. Of course there are many more recipes on the internet but these are the ones I (or my friends) checked out. And Making It Modern, I would just like to say that I truly love your videos! You must be some sort of genius. I love the way you update those recipes. I would have never thought of going from solid food to a liquid version! We have started a small cooking and tasting vintage food group (6 people and 4 Cats) and we will make ever recipe that's on your channel!!!!! Any name suggestions are welcome! Thanks for uploading these great and very amusing videos. Take care and eat delicious 😋 😋 😋
Weird for modern tastes I know but the further you go back the less weird it is, in fact during the 17th and 18thc. all dishes used to be served and eaten at the same time on the same plate, there was less distinction between a time for sweets and a time for savoury.
When I was first researching historical cooking it was to create a 17thc. banquet for the reenactment group I was in. I learnt that eating dishes as 'courses' was known as Le Russo' (Russian style) because in England and France the habit was to have all dishes on the table at the same time and you just took what you fancied when you fancied it. Soon the Russian style became all the rage, than it became the norm. Funny how things turn out.
***** Yes it is fun, I am hoping to attend a couple this year with the little one now that she is a bit older and I don't have to take the buggy everywhere. If you like costumes and corsetry it is a REALLY fun thing to get into.
+Natasha Aiken My degree is in costume design! I never made a corset but I did make a three piece suit! I also got to make a bunch of gorgeous hats in millinery class.
You lost me at beef fudge but reeled me back in with bacon. Candied pecan bacon and an old fashioned and suddenly I've forgotten all about the fudge. Great segment, Bethany!
Meat and chocolate is actually an ancient pairing that has always gone well together. Just ask the South and Central Americans that put it in their mole'

+Everyday Starlet You should surprise him with a batch! LOL!
Bethany, I LOVE this video! You're so talented. Please never stop making these videos!

Facial expression at 3.09 is priceless! Will have to pass on this one, which I nonetheless enjoyed.
+Theresa Novak Ha! I totally understand ;)

The marshmallow fluff already makes it "beef fudge", technically, considering the gelatin in it is made of animal bones.
At one time they were made with gelatin but nowadays the ingredients are vegan.

You should have a lot more viewers and subscribers!!! I like your show!!
This woman is delightful. :-D Subscribed.
I cried reading the recipe. “Ground beef for crunchiness” made me want to pass away.
Did anyone else notice the cow licking its lips at the steak in front of it?
+Blair Kelly No! I will have to go back and watch it to see! LOL!
I am shocked too!
omg I love your shirt!
Thanks! That one is fun ;).
That is wild, thanks

Beef. Fudge.
BEEF. FUDGE.
I've seen it all now.

+Shimmer832 If you ever come across that recipe again be sure to send me the link. I would love to see it!

Never "herd" of this. Glad you could "round up" the ingredients for this. Anyone who "beefs" about this recipe must hate chocolate.

+Natasha Aiken Yes! That is very true. Personally, I like the taste combination of sweet and savory.

+Natasha Aiken How fun to be part of a reenactment group! I would love to do something like that.

Reminds me a little of mincemeat pie that began with minced meat in it.
love it mam

awesome channel! glad I found it haha
Okay, you just bumped this video up by adding your little extra at the end!
Wait! Isn't mixing milk and meat not kosher?
If you really want to gag a goat, dig up some of those old Kraft recipes from the '60's.
Oh ‘EAST’? I thought you said, 1:03
As if black bean brownies weren’t scary enough...
There is so much sugar in that dish, who were these housewives trying to kill? Their husbands and kids?????
