As I have mentioned before the area of Central Illinos in which I live
is known as "Tornado Alley" I've been around many of them. And the end
result looks like pixtures I've seen of war zones.

We even have sports teams named "Tornadoes" and "Cyclones".

      Title: St. Vitus Parish Tournedos Au Poivre Et Champignons
 Categories: Beef, Mushrooms, Herbs, Booze, Dairy
      Yield: 6 servings
 
      6    (2" thick) filets
           - mignon (tournedos)
    1/4 c  Peppercorns
  1 1/2 tb Butter
      3 tb Cognac
           Salt
  1 1/2 tb Butter
      6 tb Whipping cream
      1 lb Mushrooms; sliced thin
    1/4 c  Fresh parsley; chopped
 
  Mash peppercorns with a mallet or the back of a heavy
  pan.
  
  Press each side of the fillets into the cracked
  peppercorns and let the beef stand about an hour to
  absorb the flavor.
  
  Heat the butter and add the beef and sear about 8
  minutes per side for rare, 10 for medium, 12 for well
  done.
  
  Remove the steaks to a platter and allow to rest.
  
  Add cognac to the pan and heat for just a few seconds
  and then set ablaze.
  
  Option 1: Boil the liquid about a minute then stir in
  additional butter, salt and cream.
  
  Bring to a boil, reduce heat, add mushrooms and saute
  till mushrooms are soft.
  
  Pour over fillets and sprinkle with parsley.
  
  Option 2: Skip the cream (but it's better with).
