We did these a few weeks ago but over salted them. This time no added seasoning...but more documentation.

Not really "meaty", just a lot more flavour than younger 'shrooms.

After all, porto's are just regular white/cremini/etc shrooms that are very mature (ie: they just let regular mushrooms keep growing instead of picking when they're small).

Portos go great with steak in that because of that intense woodsy flavour, they bring out the best in both mushrooms and steak.
 
Thanks everyone!

What Len said. Also, they take on marinades very well, so making them taste "meaty" is pretty easy...just use a steak marinade.
 
Thank you sir may I have another... Great work Don, got me thinking about what other things one might stuff into a portobello... I thought of maybe a fennel, sweet pepper and pork blend may work well too.. I will have to try and find out

Just as everyone has said, Don. Those look fantastic! I'm not big on mushrooms, but I recently had a portobello grilled and I am definitely a convert. That one was basically just cheese filled, but yours look SO much better! And they inspire such great ideas like the spinoff that Wayne Truelove posted.

Now, do you have a cookbook published a la mode of your recipe for these 'shrooms? I think you would make a fortune! But thanks for giving it to us for free
