Excellent! Couldn't be better. Prepared this four times. Each time a winner.

My go to recipe for filets. Just right every time.

This is an amazing recipe. It is now my go to recipe for filet. Having it tonight for husbands birthday dinner. Thanks for a great recipe that is very easy to follow.

Tried this on Valentine's Day -- what an amazing recipe! Still very tender, even though we like our steaks medium to medium well.

Normally always grilling steaks, saw this recipe and decided to do something different! This was so amazing, we no longer grill our filets. I always fix them this way....easy, and absolutely melt in your mouth steaks!

Tender, flavorful, juicy, melt-in-your=mouth goodness. Wow!

Always awesome! Steaks need to be out of the fridge at least 2 hours to reach room temp before cooking.

Absolutely delicious! Tender and tasty. Will never make a filet any other way.

Great recipe. Awesome flavor. Easy

Made this yesterday !

Very easy to prepare and so tasty

Thanks for this simple recipe--I usually just do them on top of the stove but will do it this way now

Flavorful while allowing natural juices to flow through. Mouthwatering!

Perfect for kitchen grilling

Cook it for Valentine's family dinner. Everybody just loved it. I don't cook but this recipe is so simple and easy to follow that made me look like a real chef.

Only way I make filet now! Perfect everytime!

Perfect directions to prep and cook my fresh market filet mignon.

This recipe was first given to me by one of the butchers at Fresh Market. I have been using it for about 6-7 months now, and my wife thinks I am a gourmet chef now! This & the recipe for Lobster Tails, and I'm ready for any fancy meal I need to impress someone with.

Excellent steak!!!
