Grilled Garlic Butter Beef Tenderloin Recipes

GRILLED BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH HERB-GARLIC-PEPPER COATING

Steps:

• Prepare beef: Trim off excess fat with a sharp knife. Fold thin tip end under to approximate the thickness of the rest of the roast. Tie with butcher's twine, then keep tying the roast with twine every 11/2 to 2 inches (to help the roast keep its shape). Snip silverskin with scissors to keep roast from bowing during cooking. Then, mix oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, pepper and salt; rub over roast to coat. Set meat aside.
• Either build a charcoal fire in half the grill or turn all gas burners on high for 10 minutes. Lubricate grate with an oil-soaked rag using tongs. Place beef on hot rack and close lid; grill until well-seared, about 5 minutes. Turn meat and close lid; grill until well-seared on second side, another 5 minutes.
• Move meat to the charcoal grill's cool side, or turn off burner directly underneath the meat and turn remaining one or two burners (depending on grill style) to medium. Cook until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest section registers 130 degrees for rosy pink, 45 to 60 minutes, depending on tenderloin size and grill. Let meat rest 15 minutes before carving.

GARLIC HERB BUTTER BEEF TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Prepare the tenderloin by trimming the fat. Cut it in half and tie the roast. Bend the tail in at the end of the roast so that it is tied in even thickness.
• Preheat a heavy bottom skillet to medium high heat and add the olive oil. Once the olive oil has reached the smoking point, add the roasts and sear each side for 3-4 minutes or until it is golden brown.
• To make the garlic butter spread: Combine the butter, garlic, thyme, oregano, rosemary, salt and pepper.
• Place the tenderloin in a roasting pan, heavy bottomed skillet, or baking dish. Spread half of the butter on the roast.
• Roast in the oven until the temperature reaches just under 140 degrees for medium doneness. Remove from the oven and slather the rest of the garlic butter on top and let stand 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475ºF.
• Tie up the beef tenderloin so that it is an even thickness the length of the tenderloin.
• Combine 4 tablespoons of the softened butter, garlic, herbs, salt, and pepper.
• Spread butter mixture evenly over the entire beef tenderloin.
• Line a baking sheet with foil, place a wire rack over the top of the sheet and the tenderloin on top of the rack.
• Roast for 10 minutes.
• Lower the oven temperature to 450ºF and continue to roast until the internal temperature is 5-10º shy of your desired doneness. (135ºF for medium-rare or 145ºF for medium). Depending on the size of your tenderloin roast, this can take anywhere from 25-35 more minutes.
• Rest for 15 minutes, during this time the internal temperature will continue to increase.
• While the beef tenderloin rests, make the butter sauce.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a small skillet. Add the herbs and garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add the balsamic vinegar and Worcestershire sauce.
• Turn off heat and add the remaining butter. Serve with tenderloin.

Steps:

• Set tenderloin out to come to room temperature about an hour before grilling.
• Trim any silver skin by running a sharp knife down the edge to remove the thin layer.
• Tuck the tapered end under and tie the roast or trim and reserve for another use. This will help the roast cook evenly.
• Prepare the garlic butter by adding butter and garlic to a small skillet. Cook over low heat until garlic starts to get brown and toasted. Stir in rosemary, salt and pepper.
• Remove from heat and whisk in brown sugar until melted. Set aside and cool slightly.
• Place tenderloin on a sheet pan and pour garlic butter over the meat. Spread the garlic and herbs evenly over the top of the roast.
• Prepare a grill fire with hickory for smoke flavor to about 350°.
• Cook tenderloin over indirect fire with the grill lid closed about 30 minutes. Check with a digital thermometer and continue to cook until desired doneness is reached about 45 minutes total for rare, about 1 hour for medium rare.
• Remove from grill to a cutting board and allow to rest about 15 minutes before serving.
• Slice and serve immediately.
