Filet Mignon with Dijon Port Sauce image

Sauce on a filet? The blasphemy! If it makes you feel better, try this sauce on a ribeye or strip or even a slice of Spam. Yeh, it's THAT good. The french application of the buerre manie thickens the sauce nicely while adding the richness that only butter can.

Overall, I thought this recipe was pretty good. The steak was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful. I would have liked the sauce to be a bit thicker, but that's just personal preference. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I ended up burning the steak and the sauce was a mess. I think I'll stick to simpler recipes in the future.

I followed the recipe exactly and the steak came out a little overcooked for my taste. The sauce was also a bit too salty. I think I'll try it again with a lower cooking temperature and less salt in the sauce.

This dish was a bit more work than I usually like to put into a weeknight meal, but it was worth it. The steak was amazing and the sauce was to die for. I'll definitely be making this again for special occasions.

This recipe was a disaster! The steak was tough and overcooked, and the sauce was bland and tasteless. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I won't be making this again.
