Three Pepper Beef Tenderloin Recipes

PEPPERED BEEF TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Coarsely grind the peppercorns in a spice or coffee grinder and transfer to a medium bowl. Add the parsley, mustard, butter and 1 tablespoon salt in a medium bowl and mix together until thoroughly combined. Rub the spiced butter all over the tenderloin, rolling the beef in the portions that fall off to coat completely. The beef can be prepared up to this point, covered, and refrigerated up to 1 day in advance.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place the beef on a rack and set over a baking sheet. Roast until a meat thermometer inserted into the center registers 130 degrees F for medium rare, about 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and let stand for 10 minutes. Transfer the beef to a cutting board, preferably a meat board with a reservoir to catch the juices, and garnish with the parsley.
• Spray six 4- to 6-ounce ramekins with cooking spray. Stir together the sour cream, Dijon, horseradish and 1 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Heat the half-and-half in a small saucepan over medium-high heat until it just barely comes to a simmer.
• Meanwhile, put the gelatin in a large bowl, add 3 tablespoons warm water and stir until completely dissolved. Gradually pour in the warm half-and-half while whisking constantly.
• Add a splash of the half-and-half mixture to the sour cream mixture and stir to loosen, then add the sour cream mixture to the large bowl with the half-and-half mixture, whisking gently until thoroughly combined.
• Pour the mixture into the ramekins (the ramekins will not be full) and refrigerate until set, at least 4 hours. The panna cottas can be kept refrigerated, covered with plastic wrap, up to 2 days
• When ready to serve, run a thin knife along the edge of each ramekin and invert the pana cottas onto plates. Sprinkle with the chives and serve immediately.

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.

PEPPER-CRUSTED BEEF TENDERLOIN RECIPE

Steps:

• Prepare Ingredients Coarsely crack enough whole black peppercorns to yield ½ cup. If using pepper mill, start with ½ cup plus 2 tablespoons peppercorns. Place cracked pepper in fine-mesh strainer and tap strainer to remove fine dust. Discard dust. Most mills will yield about 2 tablespoons dust along with ½ cup cracked pepper. Grate zest from 1 medium orange to yield 1 tablespoon. Prepare and Cook Roast Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 300 degrees. Combine 4 ½ teaspoons kosher salt, 1 ½ teaspoons granulated sugar, and ¼ teaspoon baking soda in bowl; set aside. Heat cracked peppercorns and 6 tablespoons olive oil in small saucepan over low heat until faint bubbles appear.Continue to cook at bare simmer, swirling pan occasionally, until pepper is fragrant, 7 to 10 minutes. Using fine-mesh strainer, drain cooking oil from peppercorns. Discard cooking oil and mix peppercorns with remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, grated orange zest, and ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg. Set 1 (6-pound) whole beef tenderloin, trimmed, on sheet of plastic wrap. Sprinkle salt mixture evenly over surface of tenderloin and rub into tenderloin until surface is tacky. Tuck tail end of tenderloin under about 6 inches to create more even shape. Rub top and side of tenderloin with peppercorn mixture, pressing to make sure peppercorns adhere. Spray three 12-inch lengths kitchen twine with vegetable oil spray; tie head of tenderloin to maintain even shape, spacing twine at 2-inch intervals. Transfer prepared tenderloin to wire rack set in rimmed baking sheet, keeping tail end tucked under. Roast until thickest part of meat registers 120 degrees for rare and 125 degrees for medium-rare (meat will be slightly more done in thinner parts), 60 to 70 minutes. Make Sauce Start sauce as soon as roast goes into oven. Mince 2 shallots. You should have about 6 tablespoons. Mince 3 garlic cloves. You should have about 1 tablespoon. Melt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter in medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add shallots, 1 tablespoon tomato paste, and 2 teaspoons sugar. Cook, stirring frequently, until deep brown, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add 2 cups beef broth, 1 cup red wine, ¼ cup orange juice, 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire, and 1 sprig fresh thyme, scraping up any browned bits. Bring to simmer and cook until reduced to 1 cup, 35 to 40 minutes. Strain sauce through fine-mesh strainer and return to saucepan. Return saucepan to medium heat and whisk in remaining 4 tablespoons butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep sauce warm. Rest and Slice Roast When roast reaches desired temperature, transfer it to carving board and let rest for 30 minutes. Remove twine and slice meat into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Serve, passing sauce separately
