What's
In It?
The entire muscle from which the Filet are cuts known as the Tenderloin, which is cut from the lower back of the beef. This muscle has it easy, making for fine muscle fibers and a soft, tender cut.

Cooking Notes
This cut does not have much protective fat, so you want to cook the Filet quickly over high heat. The idea is to get a nice sear on the outside, while keeping the internal temperature to a juicy 130°F (medium rare). Be careful not to overcook this wonderfully tender cut, the lack of fat could leave you with a tough meal. Finally, let your filet rest before enjoying and enjoy.
