Ina’s No-Fail Filet of Beef

The most tender beef cut is the filet, which comes from the loin. This is where filet mignon, which is created from the tenderloin’s pointed end, originates. The tenderloin is an extremely lean cut since it has very little fat.
Beef tenderloin is one of the most expensive beef steaks as a result of all of that.

Scale
  • 1 whole filet of beef (4 to 5 pounds), trimmed and tied

  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon coarsely ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.

  • PRO TIP: Keep in mind that the internal temperature will continue to rise about 5 to 7 degrees after being removed from the oven.
