Grass Fed Filet Mignon

Grass Fed Filet Mignon

Grass-fed filet mignon is a premium cut of beef that comes from cows raised on a diet of grass rather than grain. This method of raising cattle is often touted for producing meat that is leaner, with a distinct flavor profile that can be described as slightly more earthy and robust compared to grain-fed beef. Grass-fed filet mignon retains tenderness while offering a healthier fat composition, with higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA).

Cooking grass-fed filet mignon can be a bit different than traditional grain-fed beef because the meat is leaner and can cook faster. It’s important not to overcook it, as it may become tough. Here's a basic approach to cooking grass-fed filet mignon:

  1. Preparation:

    • Take the filet mignon out of the fridge 20-30 minutes before cooking to bring it to room temperature.

    • Season generously with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices (garlic, rosemary, thyme, etc.).

  2. Searing:

    • Heat a cast-iron skillet or another heavy pan over high heat. Add a small amount of oil with a high smoke point (like avocado oil).

    • Sear the steak for 2-3 minutes on each side, until a nice crust forms.

  3. Cooking:

    • After searing, reduce the heat to medium-low. For grass-fed filet, it's best to aim for an internal temperature of around 125°F for medium-rare (as grass-fed meat cooks faster). Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature.

  4. Resting:

    • Once done, let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.

Enjoy your steak with your favorite sides, whether it's roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad!
