Horseradish, especially fresh ground as you used, is the nuclear option for many people's palates. Allow diners to take as much, as little, or no horseradish as they wish.

- use less mustard, but don't eliminate it

- careful with the sear, the meat can cook more than you realize, and I am seeing this in the photos. Consider not searing. Searing generally is used for color and flavor, neither of which are lacking in Beef Wellington. An argument can be made that the sear patina is dissolved in the juices and liquids from the subsequent bake.

- precisely which cut of beef did you use? There appears to be a fat layer (yum!) however, I don't associate this with filet.

Definitely understand the items you had suggested.

Wife ended up getting a whole beef tenderloin from Costco (about 5 lbs) - I did cut the center section out (made fillets out of the rest for later) but did not trim up for this piece.

I've seen versions of wellington where they tie the strap, which is what I did, but if I were to do again, I'd trim off the that attached strap section, and go with the smaller piece that does not contain any fat.

That said, even with your recommendations, I be hard pressed to try this again.

^Never knew there was a beer Kilkenny. I only knew it as one of the Irish Pubs back in Tulsa.

Technically for Thursday night but just picked this up today. 2.5 lb Tomahawk Wagyu. Not playin around!

UncleWede · 08-16-2022, 04:40 PM

Heading to Lure fish house for my little bro's b-day tonight. If I do the usual, it will be Caesars and a half-dozen oysters, including a significant collection of rolls, and probably Cosmo(s) plural.

Or I may shake things up for his birthday

Ha! Fair point. Yeah that is the downside to bone-in steaks. Having to pay for a bone sucks but I'd be surprised if this bone is more than .5 lb. Out of curiosity I'll try to remember to weigh the bone after we eat. But it does make a strong case for getting a premium filet vs a tomahawk when taking the bone waste into account.

You will have the trout almondine a glass of pilsner and blueberry cobbler for dessert.

Since a good tomahawk is typically like $70/lb or more, half a pound could still be $35 or more you're paying for bone.

Here in OK where we have tons of great Angus beef, for the cost of few large Tomahawk's you can just buy a 1/4 cow and have beef for a LONG time.

But the older I get, the less steak/beef I ear in general.

Tuna Ponzu, 3 Cosmos, and bread. There was a "Choco-flan" cake, but I had a small piece of my brother's gift lemon bars.

OkieSnuffBox · 08-17-2022, 01:53 PM

Probably nothing. Just went to lunch with a buddy of mine from work. Burger, fries, and a beer.

Pretty decent food but I thought the burger and fries were oversalted.
