Roasted raises direct with a small piece of Post Oak. Turned out really good.

Thank you,

    Trimming the end piece is a bit of a pain in the *ss. Would be the ideal piece to add some meat glue. Was too lazy to tie it up.

    Yes and yes! That plate is a home run. And what a score on the protein.

    Our local Randall's has them on sale fairly regular. I butchered my very first one trimming it up but it was a learning experience. Now it seems fairly easy, just takes a little time.
    Thanks!

    Man does that look tasty.  It's been a while since I've had beef tenderloin.  Three years, IIRC.  Bought a whole (untrimmed) one on sale and dry aged it using UMAI bags for 30 days.  The outer peel hardened like wax and all I had to do was very light trimming.  Super tender and tasted like an aged sirloin, albeit a little dry.
    It's "Smokin Gal", not "Smoking Al".

    Can't say as I've ever seen a beef tenderloin butt in the wild, but I'll be on the lookout for one.

    I don't usually shop there because its slightly out of the way (by a few minutes) vs. Kroger or HEB, and their  prices tend to be somewhat higher. But this inspires me to stop in there more frequently. I work right across from one every Wed though, so there's no real excuse.
