First attempt a Beef Wellington

[Travis]

Hey ya'll. I had bought whole tenderloin at Costco, broke it down and froze it. Tonight I gave Gordon Ramsey's recipe a go with the chateaubriand.
Turned out very good and also learned a little along the way for next time.
I think I used a little too many mushrooms and still had some moisture in them because the bottom was a little soggy when cutting and serving.
No worries though, flavor was on point and it was a fun cook.

Have a good one fella's!

Travis, great cookup. The moist bottom is pretty common. It's hard to keep all the puff pastry crisp all the way to the plate. Your meat looks perfect.

I have a couple tips. Yeah, you gotta get your duxelles completely dry. But you can rest the cooked Wellington upside down on a rack to avoid that sometimes. It lets the juices run the other way during the rest. Yours looks like an upside down rest would have worked.

@Travis Wow! That's just a whole new level for me to aspire to. Looks amazing and thanks for sharing.

WTF? Are you some kind of mad cooking genius or do you have horse shoes up your ass? That looks perfect dude.

I've never seen anything like it come off a kettle before.  Brilliant!

[Thrillho]

Well done sir! That looks fantastic. I agree with @Foster Dahlet never seen anything like it come off a kettle before.

Someone must have been hovering over you screaming profanities and insults to get results like that.
