    Petite beef filet

    picked up a petite beef filet this am. Going to use my camp chief pellet pooper. Any suggestions. Best IT? Smoke or grill or both?

    I'm waiting to see if you get some suggestions, because I have some of these in the freezer.

      Filet Mignon is a very tender piece of meat. I grill mine hot and fast to rare or slightly above rare, like 125-130*. If you want medium rare you could probably take it to 135*. I normally bacon wrap to add some flavor. Don't try to smoke it or do it low and slow, you will kill it.

        Well, if it's 2" thick, I might consider low and slow to 115F, then sear.

        Yea my temps would be post sear. But that's a good point on the cooking procedure and then the carry over as I mention below.

      Got it thanks for the great advice.

        One thing I did forget to mention, there is carry over cooking time. If you want 125* for instance, take them off at 118-120* and let them rest. You hit about 125* with the carry.

          Ok. Planned on the carryover. Thank again.
