Prime Center Cut Chateaubriand
DESCRIPTIVE QUALITIES: A Chateaubriand, also known as a Filet Mignon roast, tenderloin roast, or beef tenderloin, is a decadent cut of beef that is perfect for holidays or any special occasion. A traditional Chateaubriand is one of the most tender cuts of beef and often the most expensive cut of beef you can find on the market.
BEHIND THE PRODUCT: The secret of the tenderness of the Chateaubriand is where it is located on the animal. Chateaubriand is an extremely moist tenderloin roast consisting of Filet Mignon and the larger tenderloin sub-primal. This tender roast is not part of any load bearing muscle, which makes the entire cut extremely juicy and tender.
The word Chateaubriand originates from France and roughly refers to a ‘thick tenderloin of beef’. It is said that Chateaubriand was named after famous 19th Century Writer, Francois-René de Chateaubriand, who was an avid lover of this particular cut of beef.
SERVING SUGGESTIONS: This Chateaubriand roast is best cooked rare to medium-rare. Sear the roast in a large skillet pan with oil until lightly browned. Place the roast in a roasting pan and cook until the internal temperature is 125ºF to 130ºF. Allow 15-20 minutes resting time before serving for recommended experience.
