What is filet mignon or tenderloin?
Filet mignon is French for “thick slice dainty.” The words seem to be at odds with each other, but actually they aren’t when you think about it.
A filet mignon should be fairly thick. And even though it is thick, the meat remains easy to cut (tender or dainty).
Filet mignon comes from the small end of the tenderloin (called the short loin) which is found on the back rib cage of the animal. This area has no connective tissues that are hardened because the area bares no weight.
The term tenderloin or chateaubriand refers to the entire strip of meat.
Slices of tenderloin are called filet mignon.
Some people say that a filet mignon is so tender it should never be cooked beyond medium-rare because the longer you cook it, the less tender and more dry it becomes. That is how I like my tenderloin cooked. However, I believe that you should cook it to your own preference.
A dry, high heat method such as broiling, roasting, pan-frying or grilling work well with this tender cut of beef.
Using a heavy sauté pan or even better, a cast iron skillet, will form that brown, flavorful, crusty surface that everyone seems to love. Yummy!
A tenderloin has no surrounding fat tissue so that is why you see that it is often wrapped in a layer of fat (called barding) such as bacon. This helps to keep it from drying out and it also adds flavor.
That would be filet mignon, pronounced 'min-yawn'. It is a special cut of beef, normally 7-9 ounces in size. It is special (and expensive)because it is so tender you can cut it with just your fork, no knife is necessary. And it contains little fat compared with other cuts of beef. Look for it in nice restaurants.
It is filet mignon, and it is a very choice cut of steak. It is very good.
I've never heard of that, but I think you may mean
"FILET MIGNON." That is a very thick cut of steak and it is usually pretty expensive. An eight oz. filet would probably be 20 to 30 dollars!!! If you ever order it, remember that the thickness of the steak causes the centre to be pinker than usual.
Filet mignon (pronounced min yown) is the beef tenderloin cut 1 to 2 " thick and then grilled/broiled like a steak instead of cooking the entire beef tenderloin like a roast. I think it's the best cut for a steak, but it is also the most expensive. Oftentimes, the beef is wrapped in bacon and then grilled.
