beef tenderloin

SamIam

OK got a tender butt all crusted and ready to go on.As opposed to filet steaks,hot and dwell,what is the best way to go here? 3# of meat direct or indirect? starting the fire in 15 min.

samiam, did one last weekend - put it on direct with a dome temp of 350 degrees. I didn't watch the exact time, maybe about 35-40 minutes - removed with internal temp or 130. Good Luck :~}

Gfw , Did you do the drunk and dirty, or something else? How often did you rotate? [p]Thanks,

Car Wash Mike, just a little salt and pepper - turned it over one time just to put some color on both sides - it wasn't very thick and weighed in at bout 2.5 lbs - I really should have watch the time, but with a few beers and a little conversation, we jjust watch the temp.[p]

Gfw,Good food, good beers, and good company, sounds like a huge success to me.[p]CWM

samiam,
Here is a link to an experience I had with a beef tenderloin.
It was quite good.
Very similar to GFW's method.
