Description

The filet mignon, also known as tenderloin steak, is universally regarded as luxurious, decadent, and the leading cause of steak envy at restaurants everywhere. Located between the sirloin and the rib, the tenderloin is aptly named since it is simply the most tender beef cut. Double R Ranch filet mignons are cut from hand selected, perfectly aged tenderloins for a mouthwatering finished flavor and a fine buttery texture. Each steak is hand-trimmed to minimize waste and create the best plate presentation possible. These are consistently our top selling steaks.

"...Hands down, Double R Ranch is the best beef in the country." ~ Eric Hellner, Executive Chef, The Metropolitan Grill, Seattle, Washington

WHAT IS FILET MIGNON?

Filet mignon is a steak cut from the tenderloin. It’s the most tender of all steaks and is known for its buttery, mild flavor. This is also sometimes called a tenderloin steak.

Beef Grading

The USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) separates domestic beef into eight grades, based on intramuscular fat or marbling, and other qualities like tenderness, juiciness, and flavor. The two highest grades are Prime and Choice.

USDA Prime is the top grade on the USDA scale and features a moderately abundant amount of marbling. Only 5 to 6% of all U.S. beef grades at this high level.

USDA Choice falls directly below USDA Prime. Choice beef is high quality and has less marbling but offers an excellent value.

Cooking Tips

Filet mignon is naturally tender and has a lower amount of marbling than steaks like ribeyes and New York strips. They are best prepared medium rare to medium.

Be sure to completely thaw your filet mignon before cooking.
Internal temperature is the most accurate way to know if your steak is done. Keep a good quality thermometer on hand.
Rest your steak at least 10 minutes before serving to let the internal temperature equalize and allow the juices to be reabsorbed.
Slice steak against the grain – 90° to the direction of the muscle fibers. This makes for a more tender bite.
Finish your steak with a light sprinkle of flaky salt for a nice presentation and an appetizing salty crunch.

Beef Diagram

Filet mignon, or tenderloin steak, is obtained from the loin primal located under the ribs and next to the spine. Filets mignons are sourced from the psoas major, a muscle that receives minimal use. Exercise makes a muscle tough, so the lack of physical activity makes the filet mignon a very tender steak. This muscle has minimal marbling so it does not have the flavorful fat found in ribeyes or New York strips.

Filet mignon sounds French, but American writer O. Henry is credited with coining the word in a short story written in 1906.
