Grilled Beef Filet Mignon Food

GRILLED FILET MIGNON WITH POMMES ANNA

Steps:

• Preheat one oven to 400 degrees F and a second oven to 450 degrees F.
• For the steak: Trim out four nice 6-ounce steaks, leave some of the fat and sinew on the steaks. Reserve any trimmings for the sauce, ideally at least 6 ounces of trimmings. Sprinkle the steaks with sea salt and heavy cracked black pepper and place into a shallow dish. Pour the olive oil and red wine over the steaks and top with the bay leaves. Set aside to marinate while you start the pommes Anna, Jerusalem artichokes, tomatoes and sauce.
• For the pommes Anna: Rub 2 tablespoons of the butter into a 10-inch cast-iron pan. Place the potatoes in the pan resembling an overlapping deck of cards. Season with sea salt and dab with the remaining 6 tablespoons butter. Bake in the 400-degree oven until cooked through and golden, about 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, for the Jerusalem artichokes: Cook the Jerusalem artichokes in salted simmering water until very tender, 45 to 50 minutes. Drain off all but 1/2 cup cooking liquid and add the cream and butter. Use an immersion blender to puree the Jerusalem artichokes. Season with sea salt and pepper. Keep warm.
• For the tomatoes: Sprinkle the tomatoes with the olive oil and some sea salt and pour onto a baking sheet. Roast in the 450-degree oven until just cooked, 20 to 25 minutes.
• For the sauce: Add the olive oil and butter to a medium cast-iron skillet and heat until almost smoking. Add the trimmed filet pieces and sear well on all sides. Once the trimmings are seared, add the red wine, stock and cognac and reduce for about 12 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Strain the sauce and keep warm until ready to serve.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
• Put the marinated filets on the grill and grill on both sides until desired temperature, 130 degrees F for medium-rare. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing each steak into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
• Line the middle of a large platter with the Jerusalem artichoke puree, top with the filet slices and finish with the reduced sauce. Arrange the tomatoes along the edges. Serve with the pommes Anna on the side.

PERFECT GRILLED FILET MIGNON

Steps:

• Pour salad dressing into a zip lock bag. Place steaks inside with bacon, seal and marinate in refrigerator for 3-4 hours.
• Wrap bacon around each steak, securing with toothpick or butcher's twine.
• Grill steaks over hot coals about 8 minutes per side (5 minutes for rare. Baste with mixture of steak sauce and water. For perfect steaks, turn only once.
• I live in a loft -- no charcoal grill. I seared filets on my Wolfgang Puck counter top grill, lines and all. Then I placed filets in a heavy duty nonstick skillet in a 400 degree oven for 10 minutes. Voila! Perfectly cooked medium steaks. I would think 8 minutes for medium rare and 6 for rare.
