How people cook with it
Beef tenderloin steaks are versatile and can be prepared using various cooking methods to suit your preference.
- Pan-seared for a quick and flavorful meal.
- Grilled to perfection for a smoky char.
- Roasted in the oven for even cooking.
- Broiled for a tender, juicy finish.
To prepare, allow the steaks to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. Season generously with salt and pepper. For pan-searing, heat a tablespoon of oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting time for desired doneness. For grilling, preheat your grill to high heat and grill for 3-5 minutes per side. Resting the steaks for 5-10 minutes after cooking is crucial for retaining juices and ensuring tenderness.
How it differs from similar foods
Beef tenderloin is significantly more tender than cuts like sirloin or ribeye due to its location in the cow, which does less work. It also has a milder flavor profile compared to the richer, more pronounced taste of ribeye or the slightly chewier texture of a New York strip.
Who it is for
Home cooks who appreciate tender, high-quality beef for special meals or everyday indulgence.
How to keep the rest
Keep the remaining steaks frozen until ready to use. For best results, thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Once thawed, store in the refrigerator and consume within 2-3 days. Do not refreeze after thawing.
