For an extra layer of flavor, consider searing the filet mignon on all sides before stuffing it. This will help to lock in the juices. When selecting crab meat, lump crab meat offers the best texture and flavor for the stuffing. Adjust the amount of whiskey in the sauce according to your preference. A smoky bourbon can also be used for a deeper flavor profile. Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the steaks to achieve a beautiful sear. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the steaks are cooked to your desired level of doneness.
