Buy your beef tenderloin - 6 - 7 lbs at a
warehouse club. You can cut 2 - 3 steaks from the thick end and 12 -
16 oz off the thin end for stir fry or other make ahead meals. This
leaves a well proportioned roast that cooks evenly. Trim off excess
fat, clip the silver skin with scissors to keep meat from bowing. Tie
with butchers string. |
