Fondue Bourguignonne (Meat Fondue)

2 lbs trimmed filet mignon, cut into 3/4 inch cubed pieces

Vegetable oil to fill 1/2 fondue pot

Salt & Pepper to taste

Sauces for dipping

Cube filet mignon and season with salt and pepper then plate

Heat oil to 375F and very carefully transfer to fondue pot unless you heat oil in fondue pots

Prepare sauces

Light heating unit that will be used to maintain oil temperature during dinner

Russ:

Trickiest part is keeping oil hot enough without over heating. This takes control over the flame and avoiding overcrowding fondue pot . Until you master this you might consider making this outside on a warm evening.

If desired, chopped chicken breast can be added for those who do not eat meat. I would add green sauce or Spicy Herb Dressing if doing this.
