I was going to make one for this past Christmas Dinner, but the $100 price tag stopped me. My butcher was more than willing to compose it for me, but I just couldn’t pull the trigger.

My kids requested Beef Wellington for Christmas dinner this year. Those tenderloins were huge, and also over $100. I asked one butcher if he could cut off 2.5 to 3 pounds of one for me, and I guess he decided that selling half was better than selling none, so he obliged. That was about $70 for just the tenderloin. It was oh so good, though! Heaven! We haven’t had that fancy a Christmas dinner in several years, but I was so happy to have my daughter home for a change, I willingly complied with the requests.
