Reply to comment by thedirtsquirrel in [Homemade] Reverse seared filet, roasted broccoli, & Pappardelle With gorgonzola cream sauce by thedirtsquirrel

Beautiful work, OP! I'm happy you posted the cross section, I was curious about the middle. Looks like a very even cook on that steak! Gorgonzola sauce or compound butter are two things I just love putting on steak.

Ugh, it's just so good. Sauces can go on steaks - idc what people say.

I think a filet is an ideal canvas for a sauce because it has a pretty mild flavor just in itself. When I cook tenderloin I usually serve it with two sauces, a brandy peppercorn pan sauce (hot) and a mustard horseradish cream sauce (cold). I would pick Gorgonzola any time, but my husband doesn't do cheese.

Agreed! I think I said elsewhere, but if I'm having a plain steak I'm having a ribeye or strip. Those really stand on their own.
