Wow. Just wow. As others have said, I felt like I'd made something of restaurant-caliber. Perfect as is; not a single tweak necessary.

Really great recipe! Hubby and I loved it and will likely make it again. For one of the steaks, I finely chopped some leftover sauteed mushrooms, and them added to the cheese/bread crumb mixture. This was a nice addition to the strong flavor of the gorgonzola. Both ways tasted really good. We grilled steaks before adding the topping and broiling.

made this recipe recently. It flavor of the filet mignon was incredible and blue cheese and bread crumbs add a nice flavor to the meat. I got a little confuse on the sause in the beginning but i just put the sauce in with the meat when i broiled the filet mignon.

I really liked this recipe a lot, but I did figure out that I don't like Thyme or Port Wine. I won't ever make a recipe with these ingredients again. Back to this recipe, I really enjoyed the blue cheese with bread crumbs topping the steak..that was fantastic! I really enjoyed the sauce, but again thyme and port wine are not my fav. I wonder if there is an alternative here. Overall really great though! My husband enjoyed it.

I loved the combo of the meat with the blue cheese topping. I didn't care for the port wine sauce. I would make the filet again with a glass of wine on the side.

Made this last night, loved the blue cheese topping, and also loved the sauce (I used Merlot instead of port), however, I think the 2 together are 'too much'. I will use these toppings again, but not together.

Made this exactly as written and it was SO good--ten times better than any steak I have ever eaten at a restaurant, including expensive steakhouses. There was lots of flavor in this. Thank you so much for the recipe. This will be the go to dish for special occasions at my house now. YUM!!!

fantastic! I have never made filet mignon and it turned out wonderfull! I only did 2 things differently, I added a little water to the blue cheese/bread crumb mix so that it would stay on the filet a little better, and I used red wine, becuase I didn't have any port.

Oh my gosh, this was so good. my husband said it ranked up there with one of the best steaks he has had. pretty impressive words considering this was my first attempt to cook a steak. This was so tender. I did change one thing and that was to use merlot for the sauce. It was great! I also increased the cooking time to 20 min for my husbands medium steak and 25 for my medium well. It was so easy yet elegant! Thanks!

Oh my!!! As if it needs another review...but it was amazing. I could still taste it the whole next day. I'm not a red meat lover, but I was cooking for company so I was going out on a limb and I LOVED it. I am actually craving steak now. I cooked it according to the recipe -except- I used New York Strip instead of Fillet Mignon because I was too cheap to buy the good stuff.

I made this recipe for my boyfriend and his roommate. They both absolutely loved it. They said the combination of the Blue Cheese and the Port Wine Sauce was excellent. It was pretty simple even for a novice in the kitchen like me. I did cook the fillets a little longer because we like ours a little more done. I also paired this dish with garlic mashed potatoes and asparagus. I would recommend this to everyone.

This is an excellent steak recipe! I would suggest doubling the sauce if you like extra sauce, I find that I make a good amount when I only cook 2 steaks using this recipe. Otherwise a fabulous dish, one that I have made many times now.

First of all thanks for this incredible receipe. I used the beef loin tenderloin. I panfryed them slowly over medium heat using EVO and butter. When the steaks were medium well I put the blue cheese and bread crumbs. I placed them in the broiler for 4 min. Awesome sauce for these steaks. We all loved them. My son is a Chef and he was totally impressed.

Incredible! Served it for Valentine's dinner for hubby and he swooned. It is tricky to make sure not to overcook with all the different steps. I cooked two 8 oz filets, about 1 1/2 inch thick. I took it out of the oven when it reached 130 degrees. Between popping it back under the broiler to melt the cheese, and letting it rest for 15 minutes (a must!) it continues to cook. A rule of thumb is to let it cook to about 5 degrees under what you want to compensate for the continued cooking while it rests. It was perfectly pink and melt in your mouth tender. Some reviewers wonder why to mess with an expensive cut like tenderloin (filet mignon) it's because while it's the most tender of the cuts of beef, it's not as high on flavor because there is very little marbleling, which is what gives the flavor. That's why in most restaurants filet mignon is served with some type of sauce, like bernaise. The port wine suace here was out of this world. I doubled it, and had very little left. This is truly a special meal sure to impress your guests.
