IMPORTANT: IMPORTANT: PREPARE THIS DISH FROM FROZEN AND BE SURE TO PREHEAT THE OVEN TO 400F BEFORE PLACING WELLINGTON IN OVEN!  Oven temps can vary significantly and we are cooking this dish at high temperatures. For this reason, we recommend using an instant read thermometer to check internal temp of the beef at the 25 minute mark when cooking - this way you are able to know if the beef is done to your taste without having to cut through the pastry. Additionally, once the top of the pastry is golden brown, cover loosely with aluminum foil to prevent further browning while the beef finishes cooking.  

FREEZER TO OVEN: Preheat oven to 400F. Place Wellingtons on a greased cookie sheet. Bake, ON A LOWER RACK, uncovered, for 30-35 min until the center of the beef has an internal temperature of 145 to 155F.
