But haven't tried it yet? I have a whole beef tenderloin in the freezer but I am not sure what I want to do with it yet. I will have to use it soon and was thinking about this weekend. Wellington is kind of obvious so any ideas for something different? or should I slice it thick and grill it with a nice finishing sauce? No fest goers need answer :angry: LOL just kidding :blush:

    this sounds easy enough and it is fest food ;)

    sorry you can't make it:::

    Beef, Tenderloin, Roast, BobbyQ


    INGREDIENTS:
    3 Lbs Beef Tenderloin
    1/2 Cup Dizzy Pig’s Raising the Steaks Rub or Cowlick Steak Rub



    Procedure:
    1 Generously coat the tenderloin with the rub and let it sit for half an hour. Sear on the BGE at 650°F. for about 1 minute on each side or a total of 4 minutes. Close down the BGE with the tenderloin still on, and watch until the temperature drops to about 350°F. I finished roasting until the internal temperature was 140°F and then I pulled it and rested it for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.


    Servings: 1

    That sounds good and sure is about as simple as you can get. I think I have a few twice baked potatoes in the freezer too and those would go well with it. if you bake those ahead and freeze them they need to thaw on a paper towel or they are soggy. I reheat on the egg on a pizza screen. add a little grated cheese and they are good as fresh! a little grilled asparagus and there is Saturdays supper! cool one night down!
  • what have i wanted ....which means i have not...so this is an idea and not tried!

    thick 2 1/2 inch slice of filet mignon. seared quick and set aside,,

    mashed white and sweet 2/3 white 1/3 sweet

    taters piped decoratively on a hickory plank and filet placed on plank and back on the egg at 400 till taters have a bit of char on the piped peaks [hopefully the meat will be at the right temp

    kind of like chateaubriand..egg style like steve martin said
    '' those french,,, they have a differnt word for everything ''

    dressed with chiffonade of sage on the meat and parsley on the taters..

    all then french words form a guy that struggles with english.. must be the wine

    Well, if that tenderloin was mine, I would marinate it in Lawry's garlic and pepper marinade for 4 to 6 hours. It would then go on the egg at about 300-325F until reaching medium rare or medium. Then it would get sliced into nice thick slices. I would use Jack Daniels chips for some nice light smoke, but would be careful not to oversmoke a nice tenderloin.

    mine seem so simple.

    Stuffed Fritos

    Grilled romaine

    we were talking about grilling a London Broil which we have never done on the egg

    I want to do chili in a d.o. this winter I usually do it in the crock pot

    the list is endless.......

    I wonder how the tenderloin would hot tub? We like rare and that would be a quick cook that is for sure!

    Oh Grillmama if you have not done the romaine you have to try it! just cut down the center the long way, drizzle with Italian dressing and grill till it just starts to go limp. grate a little Romano cheese on top and I chop it up a little to make it easier to serve if there are more than 2 of you. it is to good!

    I still have yet to do an overnight cook or a pizza. I'm not as adventurous as most of the people on here. Hopefully I'll be brave and broaden my horizons.

  • Wednesday's NY Times had a bunch of stuffed pepper recipes in the food section. I made the Beef and Almond Stuffed Poblanos With Salsa Verde that night. Now I want to make the Gruyère-Stuffed Roasted Red Peppers With Raisins and Olives.
