Absolutely delicious! I made this using 3 ribeye steaks, slightly increasing the sauce ingredients. The steps did not say when to add the butter, so I added it in step 7 when adding the cream, milk and thyme, and it turned out just fine. The flavor was awesome, however, the burgundy does not produce a particularly pretty color for the sauce, which was a slightly off-shade of purple. This dish tasted so good though, the color didn't bother me in the least, it just kind of gave it personality ; ) I will be making this again! Thanks for sharing this with us, Catfish Charlie!
