Sorry about the double post, Jerboa fucked up. I tried deleting the other post, and I guess that hasn’t federated.

      Yes it was. It was very good.

      However, all the extra effort in the preparation of the Wellington really doesn’t seem worth the result. A properly made filet steak or filet roast would be a much better use of the the meat.

      For the record, I have had beef Wellington at Gordon Ramsay Steak, and I felt the same about that one too, so I don’t think that opinion has to do with the quality of my execution.

        Agreed. Wellington is a fun thing to try (both eating and making) but the effort required does not equal the result. My husband and I made one for my dad’s birthday last year and while it was fun, we will probably never go through all that effort again short of a very, very good reason.

        Edit - yours looks great, though!
