Re: Beef Wellington
The thing is.. and I know it is splitting hairs.. You got to use the center part of the tenderloin and then cut it into servings..
It looks to me like the meat was new york strip loin.
Anyways, still looks good to me.

Re: Beef Wellington
Man, that looks good! I have been hankering for a Beef Wellington for a REALLY long time! I have several Beef Tenderloins in the freezer just waiting for their big moment in the cooker. Version I want to make includes velvety foie gras and some garlic sauteed mushrooms...problem is finding the foie gras around here...D'OH!
When I do get the opportunity to make it, I'll definately get some pictures to share.

Re: Beef Wellington
I have never had the foie gras and I wish I could afford truffel oil.

Re: Beef Wellington
I haven't had foie gras in years...used to get it occassionally when I was traveling for work and entertaining clients...but one of these days (when the budget allows, and the boss gives me the okay) I want to get some to surround the tenderloin before wrapping with the puff pastry...oh to dream, eh?!?!Dr_KY wrote:I have never had the foie gras and I wish I could afford truffel oil.
