Beef tenderloin makes for a delicious, memorable meal. It’s one of those meals that my entire family looks forward to eating all day long. It’s so simple and easy to prepare, but delivers big flavor that is sure to impress your family and guests. They’ll swear you’ve slaved away over it for hours.
If your grocer doesn’t keep beef tenderloin in stock, call ahead and ask your butcher to order one for you. Pick it up the day before you plan to serve it. You’ll want to marinade it up to one hour before cooking or up to overnight the night before. The longer the better for lots of flavor.
During the warmer months, we’ll prepare our beef tenderloin on the grill or on our Big Green Egg for a delicious smokey flavor. During cooler months, simply place your beef tenderloin in a large roasting pan, cover with aluminum foil, and cook until the beef tenderloin reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. We utilize a digital thermometer that you can program the desired temperature. When the meat reaches the desired temperature, the thermometer alarms, alerting you that your meat is ready.

- 1 Whole Beef Tenderloin (Plan two 2″ filets per person)

Mmmm delicious!! I love Lawrys
Love tenderloin- looks amazing!
Yum! I haven’t made tenderloin in a long time. I think I’ll puck one up this week!
Goodness! I want it now!
We love using whole beef tenderloin. It’s often cheaper than purchasing cut steaks, and it’s tender and delicious. Love the recipe!
You are so right about it often being cheaper than buying cut steaks.
nomnomnom Looks goooooooooood!
A simple preparation for tenderloin that I know would taste great. Would love it over a great big green salad any day!
I buy Beef Tenderloin at Costco. We love to have a group of 20 somethings from church over for dinner {and they LOVE this}. BTW, I bought my hubby a Big Green Egg for Christmas and he was SO excited! It just got delivered today and he’s lighting it for the first time as I type this. Tonight he’s going to try a whole chicken and smoking a rack of ribs.
This recipe is a serious stunner! Love it!
This looks amazing.
Seriously.
When are you having me over for dinner? Soon??
My husband is begging me to make this now!
