I was wondering what the best seasoning would be for cooking Fliet Minon?

Question

I am cooking filet minon and I was wondering what would be a good seasoning to make it bring out the taste? I know good steakhouses wrap the outside edge in bacon to make it more tender but what seasonings should I use?

Answer 1

you can buy the filet migon at your local grocers with the bacon already wrapped around it. if not, i i would put some bacon around it, season it with salt and pepper and garlic salt. before i grill them, i get the A1 garlic and herb marinade and put that in a gallon ziplock bag and add the steaks and let them marinate over night. when i am ready to cook them, i put the bacon around them...very good when done....serve with baked potato and salad

Answer 2

Do not wrap it in bacon. the "good steak houses" do this to add flavor to inferior quality meat. your best bet is to start with good quality meat. good meat has the best flavor and is usually the most tender. keep your seasoning simple. the emphasis with filet mignon is the meat and not the seasoning. salt and pepper and cooking it to medium rare will give you superior flavor and tenderness.

Answer 3

The thing I do with Fillet Mignon that EVERYONE goes crazy over is: I melt some real butter in the microwave then add chunky bleu cheese dressing, probably one part butter to 2 parts dressing. I brush that on the meat then I grill grill grill!

Answer 4

Wrap outer edge with bacon, then brush open sides with a mixture of minced garlic & softened butter....It will melt in your mouth!!!

Answer 5

Any grill seasoning. I like Montreal steak seasoning personally.

Answer 6

Baste or marinate in soy sauce and garlic.

Answer 7

Crushed black pepper & celery salt.

Answer 8
