First Beef Tenderloin (pics)

Did my first beef tenderloin on the egg. Seasoned with EVOO, salt, and pepper. Setup the small with my CI DO lid upside down on the factory grid on the firering, raised grid on that. The DO lid acted as an indirect barrier for the roast phase. Went at 300* until 125* IT.

Pulled it and tented with AF. Pulled the raised grid and DO lid, removed the firering and put the grid on the firebox and the DO lid back on the grid, just above the fire. Got the temp up to 600* and seared each side for about 1 minute. Turned out perfect.



Also attempted the Bearnaise sauce from the BGE cookbook. Finished it too early and attempted to keep it warm... Yep, it separated. Lesson learned.

Also did a head of cauliflower and some spuds on the XL. And now have some cookies on.
