I hate mushrooms, always have, except for the Burgundy Mushrooms at Steak and Ale. I would actually order them for myself, so I was thrilled to find your recipe. Amazingly, these are exactly like those at the restaurant and they take less than 30 minutes to make. I used only butter and cut the beef base in half, and added 1 clove minced garlic. I actually add the wine and let it reduce before adding the mushrooms, and I only cook them for about 5 minutes. That way they aren't mush. I have to say, I ate 2 bowls and just seeing this again, I want some right now! Also, I tripled the recipe for a covered dish and they were a huge hit! Delicious!

I worked at Steak and Ale for 5 years, thats basically how its done. Bravo. <br/><br/>I've seen a lot of silly copycat recipes that have lemon juice, vinegar, and all kinds of silly ingredients. I just use a stick of butter, and the restaurant used Gallo Hearty Burgundy in the mushrooms, and made a great kabob marinade with just the burgundy and tomato juice

Tweaks

The one tweak was we cooked the mushrooms until tender in a large pot first. We were taught to put them on the stove in the large pot and turn on the heat. We figured to add a small amount of water to get the process started a bit faster. This process would take about 30 minutes. The mushrooms were drained and rinsed and then the other ingredients were combined back in the pot. The wine was added last. Simmer for as long as you like. Also, there was white pepper in this recipe. The beef base was not like the stuff we have today.
