Beef Tenderloin Recipe

Beef Tenderloin With Blue Cheese Cream Sauce

Ingredients:

• 1 (4-5 lb) beef tenderloin trimmed & tied (have the butcher do this)
• 2 Tblsp. unsalted, room temperature butter
• 1 Tblsp. salt
• cracked black pepper to taste

Directions:

Preheat oven to 500° (make sure your oven is clean before you cook this or you will fill your house with smoke).

Place the beef on a baking sheet and rub all over with butter, salt and pepper. Cook for 22 minutes (for rare) 25 minutes (for medium-rare).

If you like your meat cooked more than medium-rare add another two to three minutes, but this cut of beef is best served rare to medium-rare.

Serve with Gorgonzola Sauce.
