Do you know what it is? I mean the ingredients? I can help you with that, just have never done it on the egg.

Stike did an amazing Wellington for Christmas 07. Hopefully he will see this and share his photos and method with you.

I have never cooked one, however I have read a couple of recipes in different books and it sounds great.

We heard about the texture issue on the paella, but would it have made a pretty picture? -RP

recipe is exactly the same, only with a platesetter set-up making for indirect.
and no, AZRP, the paella looked like sh!t, but thanks for asking.ed egli avea del cul fatto trombetta -Dante -
Here is one way.
Beef, Tenderloin, Wellington, Irishrog
I cooked a Beef Wellington for a competition here in Ireland about 5 years ago, and got second prize for Beef.I'll remember the details as far as possible.
1 The fillet was a centre cut of Angus Beef, about 4 inches thick, and 12 inches long and even thickness the whole way for even cooking.
2 The pate was a rough country pate, with mushrooms, and was made almost like a terrine, with minced pork, pork fat, plenty of garlic, and seasoning. (I made the pate at home, cooked it in the EGG, and brought it with me.) There is too much work in making pate at a competition, unless you have about 3 days.
3 Anyway, I heated the EGG to about 750 F and seared my fillet, to seal in all the juices. When the fillet was sealed I cooled it down rapidly , and closed up the EGG to bring down the temperature to 325F.
4 I stabelised the EGG at 325F and put on my Pizza Stone to heat. I then prepared my Wellington.
5 I used a bought (prefrozen & defrosted) Puff Pastry which I rolled out to the thickness of coin.
6 I spread my pate on top of the puff pastry, and then laid the cold fillet on top. I coated the fillet with grain mustard, and sprinkled liberally with crushed mixed pepper corns. I then put a layer of pate on top, and folded over my puff pastry to make a parcel and seal in the beef.
7 I brushed the pastry all over with beaten egg yolk, which gives a lovely glaze when the wellington is cooked.
8 Anyway,
9 I floured the pizza stone, to stop the pastry from sticking, put on the wellington and cooked the lot for I think about 35/40 minutes. (I like my beef with plenty of natural colour).
10 The result was a delightful meal for the judges, and plenty of takers at the stand for what was left.
11 That is my memory of my beef wellington, which I hope helps.
12 Very important, it must be washed down with a good cold beer, or three, like any good BBQ.

Don't forget, I snapped a photo of that paella with the cellphone.
Lobster, scallops, calamari - great ingredient list.
If only you hadn't forgotten the peas...and the clams....and the whole "cooking" part of it. -
Smoking Bulldawg,
I made two mistakes that you want to avoid:
1) I let the pastry get too warm before I wrapped it. That accounts for the whole post nasal drip look of it.
2) Cut too meny vents and made them too large.

another common mistake is to let the mushsrooms stay moist. you want to cook them down quite a bit, almost dry. they can make the bottom a sodden mess otherwise.ed egli avea del cul fatto trombetta -Dante

stike,
agreed but that was the one I didn't makeSteve

i hearya. just making sure the dude got all the easy mistakes to make.
i did wellingtons as individual fillets once, which was a great way to try it. they were a little wet on the bottom though.ed egli avea del cul fatto trombetta -Dante -
