  • 1 shallot, finely chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 6 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon thyme sprigs, finely chopped

Wellington Bites

Duxelles

  • 2 puff pastry sheets
  • 1/8 cup flour
  • 15 teaspoons ground mustard
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper

Horseradish Chipotle Sauce

  • 1/2 cup crème or sour cream
  • 1/8 cup mayo
  • 1 oz. apple cider vinegar
  • 1 oz. water
  • 4 tablespoons prepared horseradish
  • 2 chipotle peppers in adobo
  • 4 tablespoons fresh chives, diced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

Duxelles

  • Add mushrooms, shallots, and Worcestershire sauce to a medium-high heat pan and sweat it out for 5-6 minutes.
  • Add garlic and thyme, mix until fragrant and all the moisture is removed, and set aside.

Wellington Bites

  • Cut filets into bite-sized pieces, season, and sear on all sides.
  • While preparing the duxelles, place the meat in the freezer for 15-20 minutes to slightly chill it. This will slow the cooking process in the smoker or oven without freezing the meat. Avoid letting it freeze solid.
  • Roll out the puff pastry using flour on the surface to make it easy to work with and cut into squares.
  • Add a dollop of duxelles and a squeeze of ground mustard to each square.
  • Add your steak bite, then fold over all the corners.
  • Brush each with an egg wash.
  • Cook in the oven or smoker at 450 degrees Fahrenheit for 12 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Top with horseradish chipotle cream sauce and chives.

Horseradish Chipotle Sauce

  • Add the ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.
  • Add more water until you are happy with the consistency.
