Holy cow Bear, those look fantastic. We can find them once in a while on sale at our little mom-n-pop store here, but they are allot smaller in size. Great job.

Point for sure.

Thank You Chris!!

I thought that's what you meant.
It would have been funnier if I knew more about Australian Cattle Dogs, and knew that was one.
Cute little guy. I'm betting he wouldn't care if it was Aussie Beef or any other Beef.

Mrs Bear must have been REAL pleased with that meal John. Looks fantastic!!
And $5.99 a pound for beef tenderloin?? That's about what we'r paying for ground beef here in the middle of cattle country.

Up here the best I've seen is ~$12, I do have a whole one in my freezer, I'll probably give this a try on part of it. I've also never seen the Lea & Perrins Bold Steak Sauce in any of our stores here but since you keep using it in your recipes I've ordered a 3 pack from Amazon.

Thanks Gary!
Yeah Ground Beef is usually high here too, but I saw it was on sale == 80/20 for $2.99.
Mrs Bear said we're still loaded down with Deerburger, so we passed it up.

Bear that looks seriously tasty!! I’ll keep my eyes open for beef tenderloin at that price. I never made it but at that price I’d have to buy it.

Been doing a lot of grilled pork tenderloins lately: cheap, quick and versatile for supper.

Thanks J,
Sorry you couldn't find any locally.
I was using this stuff for years, before they changed the name from "Worcestershire Thick" to "Leah & Perrins Bold Steak Sauce".
Same stuff---Different Name.

Thank You Xray!!
I still prefer Ribeye over Tenderloin, but when it comes to reheating, I'll be doing the rest of the leftovers in SV.
Ribeyes just don't cut it with SV, because of the Fat not rendering at all.
No fat on these Fillet Mignon leftovers.

Yeah, I couldn’t get the ribeyes to the point where I’m truly happy with them. Thick cut Filet Mignon is awesome in the SV though, i love those but I’ve never bought the whole beef tenderloin is what I meant to say.

I’ve been experimenting with fake aging steaks in the SV bag with fish sauce, with mixed results. I have yet to try it on a piece of lean meat like Filet Mignon. That will be my next experiment.

WOW ! That looks fantastic . Nice job as always .

Thanks Rich!

Looks great, Bear! Fantastic buy on the tenderloin! They're usually $15.99 to $19.99 lb out here. Once in a blue moon I can find some small, ungraded ones for $6.99. That's what I have thawing out now for Sunday. Probably no more than 4 lbs. total, untrimmed. I'm going to give your recipe a try.
