Our butcher trims the choice-grade beef tenderloin til it's pristine, wraps it and then you just pop in the oven. We offer full size (serves 8-10, approx. 5 lbs after all trimming is complete) or half size (serves 4-5, 2-2.5 lbs.) You can add a rub or roast it plain, it's that tender and delicious. After roasting just slice and serve. Bearnaise sauce is a classic accompaniment. Not familiar with beef tenderloin? It's the cut of beef used for Filet Mignon, is ultra tender and cooks quickly and easily, especially if you have a meat thermometer.
