Whole beef tenderloin with Soy/Mustard paste, spice rub & worcestershire glaze

We picked up a 5 lb beef tenderloin and decided to make it for our Sunday family dinner. Since this was my first one to make I thumbed through some recipes and decided to go with one from Adam Perry Lang's Serious Barbecue. First up was to make the Soy / Mustard paste, spice rub & worcestershire glaze.
First the paste, then the spice rub, followed by rubbing it down with oil. (not the greatest picture, sorry it blends in)
I fired up the egg and got it stabilized at 450°.
Then it was time to sear it on all 4 sides
Then the tenderloin got moved to the top of the Ceramic Grill Works Swing Rack and the temp got dialed down to 400°
After it hit 115° I used a thyme herb brush to put the worcestershire glaze & the apple juice spritzer on every couple of minutes until the thick end reached 128°
After letting it rest for about 10 minutes, I made a board dressing with some EVOO, thyme from the herb brush, chives, salt & pepper
Here is a shot of it all cut up. Wow, talk about flavor! This turned out really good and will be made again!!
And to finish it off we had the Pioneer Woman's Rum Cake which turned out great and almost had more rum than cake!
It was a great day, I hope everyone is enjoying the holidays like we are!

Thanks everyone, I was a little worried about overcooking the smaller end. But halfway through I paid a little more attention and moved it around the fire to cook it more evenly as I was basting it. It was so tender and the levels of flavor were awesome!Large & Small BGE, CGW Two-Tier Swing Rack for BOTH EGGS, Spider for the Wok, eggCARTen & and Cedar Pergola my Eggs call home in Edmond, OK.

Man I have missed your posts. Love the pics and write up. I did the same cook for Christmas (herb crusted). I like the thyme brush with the oil and the board dressing. Will try that next time. Thanks for postingColumbia, SC --- LBGE 2011 -- MINI BGE 2013

Thanks @caliking the whole meal turned out great!
@Chubbs I really like using the board dressing, the herb brush adds a nice level of flavor to it.
It's good to be back!

Did the same thing with Pioneer Burgundy Mushrooms. I did the basting raised, indirect. Turned out great! Can't go wrong with APL.

Awesome cook man. I've found that while APL's recipes are labor intensive they are normally worth it.1 large BGE, Spartanburg SC
