Reverse Sear Filet with Burgundy Mushrooms

February 18, 2018, 11:03 AM

It was too hard to find a reservation on VDay which also is our anniversary.
So I decided to just cook-in.

Started with a batch of Burgundy mushrooms.
Four pounds of mushrooms, a bottle of Burgundy (actually any red wine will do but it was actual Burgundy), a few spices, some butter and ONLY NINE HOURS LATER it is done.

This started out full brimming to the top with mushrooms and reduced down with cooking.

Add a couple 11 oz Choice Filets.

Then off to the oven then to a pan for the reverse sear.

Add some Burgundy Mushrooms > OMG these were as good as the steak.

As good of steak as I have had anywhere!
An the mushrooms were amazing.

Jeepers that looks good!

Did you use the Food Network recipe for the mushrooms? Link

I have a feeling that will show up on a dinner plate near me very soon.

Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Congrats on your anniversary and you knocked the meal out of the park. Steak looks perfect and 9 hour reduction sauce mushrooms sound delicious.

YUP that is the recipe I used.
FYI, the cost of the mushrooms + burgundy was more than the steaks!
Worth every penny!

Even though it is not necessarily exclusive to Ree Drummond aka the Pioneer Woman > I actually do use a LOT of her recipes, including a Mile High Mud Pie I made for desert!
