Would you like me to ask on the SCA-cooks list? Annoying Girl will undoubtedly answer. But it must be said, she is Jewish and does keep kosher, so would be a reliable source in this case.
Usual disclaimers here, but... I *believe* the issue with beef tallow is that it has to come from a cow that was killed in kosher fashion, which is difficult to determine as far as most modern supplies go. If you get it from a kosher butcher, you should be good.
Note that it counts as a meat product, so it can't be combined with dairy ingredients in a particular dish -- i.e., it makes anything it's in a meat dish.
You can use goose fat as a kosher substitute, though!
After checking with my resident Jew, she replies that Woodwindy's got it - long as the beef was killed kosher. (normal "do not mix with Dairy" restrictions apply.) - K.
