reverse sear beef tenderloin

Roasting a whole beef tenderloin in a cast iron skillet is the best way to make tender and juicy beef that will melt in your mouth!

Cast Iron Beef Tenderloin

beef

sea salt

garlic powder

thyme

olive oil

sour cream ((full fat))

Tablespoon prepared horseradish ((use more if desired))

Worcestershire sauce

Trim - remove the silvers skin and excess fat from the tenderloin if a butcher has not done so already. Use a sharp knife to carefully cut away fat and silver skin from meat.

Pat Dry - Before adding the herbs and salt, pat roast with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

Tie - Wrap the smaller ends of the roast under the larger middle. Tie it up in several spots so it will cook more evenly. Cut off excess twine.

Sprinkle with Herbs - Sprinkle coarse sea salt over entire roast, including the ends. Follow with dried thyme and garlic powder. Press herbs down so they will stick to the meat.

PREPARE THE MEAT

Sear - Add the beef to a large cast iron skillet and drizzle olive oil over the top. Place in a 475ºF oven for 10 minutes to sear the meat, then lower the temperature to 300 degrees.

Roast - Cook roast uncovered in the oven at 300ºF. Check temperature with an instant-read thermometer every 10 minutes. If your roast is bigger or smaller the cooking time will vary.

Check Temperature - Remember to cook to temperature, not to time. Take the roast out of oven when the temperature in the middle of the tenderloin reaches 5 to 10 degrees BELOW your desired doneness.

Rest - Remove tenderloin from oven with tongs and place on a cutting board. There&#39;s no need to cover it with aluminum foil or it will sweat. Let it rest for at least 10 minutes before carving into 1 inch slices. *Remember to remove the twine before carving.

ROAST IN OVEN

Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. Refrigerate until time to serve alongside tenderloin slices.

Reverse Sear Beef Tenderloin Recipe

kosher salt* (or 1 teaspoon table salt)

black pepper

unsalted butter (at room temperature)

vegetable oil (such as avocado oil)

recipe roasted garlic butter (Optional)

Tie the beef: Using kitchen twine, tie beef tenderloin crosswise at 1 ½ inch intervals.

Pat dry: Pat dry with paper towels on all sides.

Season: Sprinkle it evenly with kosher salt.

Rest: Transfer onto a plate, cover it with stretch film and let it sit on the counter for one hour.

Preheat the oven: Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Place a wire rack in a sheet pan and set it aside.

Prep for roasting: Pat dry the now-rested beef tenderloin. Sprinkle it with black pepper and spread it with butter on all sides, ensuring it&#039;s evenly distributed. Transfer it onto the wire rack.

Roast: Roast for 45-55 minutes or until the thickest part of the meat registers 125 degrees (for rare) on a digital thermometer, or 55-65 minutes or until the internal temperature is 135 degrees F (for medium-rare). Be sure to flip the roast halfway through the roasting process.

Sear: Heat oil in a large skillet (or a cast iron skillet) over medium-high heat until smoking hot. Sear tenderloin on all four sides for 1-2 minutes on each side (for a total of 5-8 minutes) until browned.

Rest: Transfer the roasted beef tenderloin onto a cutting board and spread with 2 tablespoons of roasted garlic butter. Let it rest, uncovered, for 10-15 minutes.

Slice: Remove kitchen twine and slice in ½-inch thick slices.

Serve: Serve with more roasted garlic butter on the side.
