  • no matter what cooking method you choose, the two most important things to remember are :

    tenderloin is lean meat and cooked past medium will be dry and chewy. personally i like it quiet when i cut the meat so i can hear it moo

    make sure it is tied up properly, so that it is the same diameter from end to end other wise the tail will be over cooked

    use a good thermometer and pull at desired temp rather than cook by time

    i guess that was 3 things, too bad :laugh:

    good luck

    look a page or 2 down. i had the same question. used the TRex method last night and I highly recommend it.

    sear 60-90 seconds at 700, take off and bring inside. bring the meat inside and let sit while grill cools down to 350-400 (20-30 minutes). put back on and let it continue to cook.

    i would take it off the grill when the internal temp reaches 120-125. i pulled it off at 130 as we like things medium. i have to say, that it was cooked too much. next time i will take it off in between 120-125 and let sit for 5 minutes.

    despite being a little overcooked, it was delicious. sorry, i didn't take any pics, we were all too hungry to wait on taking pictures.
