How to Make Beef Wellington from ‘Mad Men’


In the latest episode of “Binging with Babish,” a cooking series where home chef Andrew Rea recreates famous foods from films and TV shows, Andrew demonstrates how to make Roger Sterling’s decadent room service order from season one, episode six of AMC’s popular 1960s period drama, Mad Men.

Mad Men continued AMC’s hot streak of well-acted, well-written, morally irreverent dramas with its sordid look at the lives of Madison Avenue’s top advertisers. In an early episode, Roger Sterling attempts to woo America’s favorite mistress with a light room service lunch: Oysters Rockefeller, Beef Wellington, and Napoleons. This week, blatantly disregard your cholesterol levels and fire up a Lucky Strike as we indulge in some hotel-room-hedonism with our silver fox boss.”
