It bled red when cutting. Looked like raw meat when sliced. Smelled and looked like beef when frying in butter. Had a sour but pleasant taste. Found in the hollow of an oak tree

It grew to about a foot in diameter. Notably, the gills don't extend into the stem, but they could be veiled. I didn't disect it ... or eat it for that matter.
