Beef Tenderloin Recipes FAQs

Are beef tenderloin and filet mignon the same thing?

Filet mignon and beef tenderloin are both from the same cut of beef, but tenderloin is the whole cut, while filet mignon refers to steaks cut from the whole beef tenderloin.

What is beef tenderloin?

It is the most tender cut of beef you will ever taste. The tenderloin sits under the ribs, next to the backbone. Beef tenderloin is one of the most expensive cuts of beef but in my opinion it is well worth it.

Beef Tenderloin on the Grill Recipe Ingredients

  • Whole Beef tenderloin
  • Rosemary
  • Thyme
  • Garlic powder
  • Sea salt
  • Pepper

How to Grill Beef Tenderloin

  1. Bring beef tenderloin to room temperature by letting it sit out of the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour before cooking. Once ready to cook, preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Mix rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Sprinkle both sides of the beef with seasoning, patting it down to coat it well. If you prefer a stronger flavor, you can do this the night before and refrigerate the tenderloin overnight.

  3. Grill for 30 minutes with the lid closed. Check often with a meat thermometer. For medium-rare beef tenderloin, grill until beef reaches an internal temperature of 135°F or 145°F for medium.

Best Beef Recipes Tips

  • Always let your beef reach room temperature before you grill it. It will cook more evenly throughout this way.
  • Use a meat thermometer for best results.
  • Let your beef rest for at least 10 minutes before you slice it.
  • Use sea salt instead of table salt for best results. Sea salt is flakier and will give your beef tenderloin on the grill a beautiful crust.
  • Don't forget, Garlic Butter makes everything better!

Beef Tenderloin Temperature

Follow our Beef Tenderloin Temperature Chart to find the perfect temperature for your beef. Use a meat thermometer when grilling so you know exactly when to pull it off of the heat.

Trimming Beef Tenderloin

Before grilling beef tenderloin, the beef should be trimmed of excess fat and the silver skin removed. You can ask your butcher to do this for you, or do it easily at home following our instructions!

  1. With your tenderloin laying flat, carefully cut just under the silver skin with your knife. Keep the blade close to the meat, without removing too much of the meat itself. Cut away from yourself.
  2. Pull the tissue tightly against the blade using your free hand for a clean cut. Cut through the tissue until you trim it off completely. Do the same for any large white sections on the beef, which is excess fat.

Equipment for Grilling Beef Tenderloin

  • Grill and tongs
  • Meat thermometer for best results
  • Cutting board and carving knife
  • Small bowl to mix seasoning blend

We always recommend using a meat thermometer to check the temperature of your beef when grilling. This will make it easy to know when your tenderloin is ready to take off the grill!
