In today’s video it’s all about beef wellington! I kept this beef wellington pretty traditional, minus the fact that this recipe involves cooking it on a pellet grill. Now of course you can use just about any grill, or even an oven, but since a pellet grill or smoker is essentially an ove, this is the perfect recipe! This beef wellington had all the right flavors, the chateaubriand was seasoned perfectly, and was amazingly tender. The duxelles was flavorful from the garlic, thyme leaves, and shallots. I also made sure to include prosciutto and fresh crepes. Now, the cook on this beef wellington went pretty good considered it was my first time cooking one, I do wish it had been a bit more medium rare, but man were the flavors right on the money, and all in all this beef wellington was absolutely amazing! I highly recommend giving this recipe a try for yourself!

Beef Wellington Recipe:
| Ingredients |
-2lb Chateaubriand
-Kosher Salt
-Coarse ground black pepper
-Fresh Thyme
-1.5 pounds of mushrooms (I used baby bella)
-3 shallots
-4-5 cloves of garlic (or to taste)
-Prosciutto
-Crepes
-Puff Pastry
-A good whiskey
-English Mustard
| Instructions |
Prep:
1. Season the chateaubriand with kosher salt, and dry brine in the refrigerator overnight.
2. The next day, begin by dicing the shallots, garlic, and mushrooms. It is important to dice them into small pieces like in the video for making the duxelles. You can also remove the chateaubriand from the refrigerator at this time to allow it to start to warm up a bit.
3. Once the shallots, garlic, and mushrooms are diced, heat a pan on medium low heat with some neutral olive oil and a knob of butter. Add the shallots and garlic, and begin cooking until the shallots are translucent. Then add the mushrooms and cooking for 10-15 minutes until all the water has evaporated completely. Towards the end of the cooking process, add a few leaves of fresh thyme for flavor, and then deglaze the pan with a good whiskey. Cook until the alcohol has burned off and the duxelles are dry.
4. Once the duxelles are done, spread onto a baking sheet and allow them to cool completely.
5. While the duxelles are cooling, season your chateaubriand with black pepper, and sear it off in a pan on medium-high heat with a neutral oil and butter in it. It’s important to only cook the chateaubriand to get some color on the outside, about 1 minute per side. You want the inside to still be raw.
6. Once you’ve seared the chateaubriand, remove it from the pans and immediately brush with English mustard. You want to do this while it’s hot so the mustard absorbs into the meat. Allow the chateaubriand to cool at room temperature.
7. Next lay out your crepes, and shingle the prosciutto per the video instructions. Then spread the duxelles evenly.
8. Next put the chateaubriand on the crepes and duxelles, and roll up tightly using plastic wrap. Put into the refrigerator for one hour.
9. Next roll out your puff pastry so it’s big enough to encase the beef wellington.
10. Wrap the beef wellington in the puff pastry per the instructions. You can optionally make the lattice for decoration, per the video,
11. Once the beef wellington is wrapped up, brush with egg wash consistently of two egg yolks and a tablespoon of water. And then top with coarse salt.
| Cooking |
1. Set the temperature to 425º F.
2. Put the beef wellington on the cooker and allow to cook until approximately 120-123° F.
3. Once the beef wellington has reached the desired temperature, remove from the cooker and let it rest for 20-30 minutes.
4. Once the beef wellington has rested, slice, eat, and enjoy this amazing recipe!!
