The sandwich would have had great flavor but.....I cooked the meat as instructed and it was really chewy. Any thoughts on what I did wrong? The black truffle was awesome and will use in the future as spread on bread. Everything had great taste just awful texture on the meat.

Served Ina's fillet of beef at dinner and we were all amazed!! The beef was tender and cooked to perfection! Everyone raved about how delicious it tasted.
I had to confiscate what was left so that I could have some for the next day. I did serve this with a mayo and horseradish mix and my guests loved it...could not locate truffle butter.

I had a one pound fillet but didn't wind up altering the recipe at all. Used white truffle butter because I had it on hand. The dish was wonderful. Add a salad and its a great dinner meal.

Of course all of Ina's recipes look good, so I went to the store trying to find a filet roast. Talked with the butcher he said just take a filet steak and roll it, but none of the cuts looked even enough to do this. So I bought a 1 lb. steak, it was thicker on one end and rolled it sideways so that when I cut into it I would be slicing across the grain. I roasted it 1 min. per ounce, so 16 min., I tested it and put it in for 4 more min. and it registered 120 deg. Took it out, rested it for the 15 min., sliced with my electric knife so I could get the slices thin, and made the sandwiches on a small french roll, with the truffle butter on one side, and I did mayo the other side. This was by far the most tender beef ever! Next time though I think it would be just fine on any great fresh bread sliced thick instead of a roll, and horseradish sauce would definately work instead of the truffle butter. This one is a keeper! I had no idea you could roll a steak and cook it this way....:O
