It seems that there are several versions of this recipe floating around. I have the clipping from Heloise's column side by side with a hand written recipe card with some variations. I've had both recipes for many years. Here's the versions from the recipe card. I've always made it this way and it's delicious. This is a great way to prepare the less expensive cuts of beef. Mixing two different cuts of beef imparts a blend of flavors that is very tasty.
