YUM! These were great! The sauce was not as thick as I was expecting but that was probably my fault, I should have left it on a bit longer. I loved the gorgonzola, these steaks are fantastic! Thanks!

This was DELICIOUS!!! The broth was so simple but complemented the gorgonzola perfectly. I actually reduced the pan cooking time a little, put a layer of gorgonzola on top and then broiled the steak until the cheese had formed a crust. *A winner!* Thanks!

Very good! At the last minute, I wanted to do something different with my tenderloin; I searched and decided upon this recipe. I cooked the tenderloin as stated and the meat came out a perfect medium rare. I sauteed the meat in butter and garlic. I did not have gorgonzola but I had some bleu cheese and used that instead, which worked out just fine. The broth was delicious! I also served this with sauteed mushrooms and onions. Next time, I may omit the cheese and just serve it with this yummy broth.
