Eating and Drinking

Everything we eat on a daily basis has positive or negative effects on our bodies. Some things are beneficial, others are harmful. Information about some is lie; For example coffee is said to have a negative effect on growth. Is that right?

The Roasted Clove Bacon Wrapped Filet Mignon

Cooking a great steak is primarily about technique, not just what you put on it. If you do not feel comfortable trimming beef tenderloin and cutting it into filet mignon steaks, upscale grocery stores will do it for you. Try this and you should achieve good results:

Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes. This will allow the meat to “relax” a little from being in the refrigerator and it will cook more evenly throughout. It’s also the time to warm up your grill to a medium-high heat.

Season both sides of the steak liberally with kosher salt and black pepper. Feel free to experiment a little here, but I strongly discourage using iodized table salt—it’s too fine to see how much you have applied. Stick with kosher salt, sea salt, or grey salt. Black pepper should be fresh ground if possible.

Either spray or drizzle canola or olive oil all over the steak and place on grill. Cook 5 minutes and turn over. Cook another 5 minutes and check the internal temperature with a probe thermometer. Continue cooking and flipping every 4-5 minutes until your desired doneness. Try experimenting with attractive grill marks: rotate the steak 90 degrees when flipping. This will give you a “cross-hatched” appearance.

After the steak is cooked to your liking, remove and place on a plate and allow to rest for 3-5 minutes. Do not cut into your steak until the resting time is complete because the juices will run out as soon as you cut into it. Waiting 5 minutes will greatly improve the texture and flavor of your steak. If the steak is too cool for your liking after resting, place it on the grill for 15 seconds on each side. This will heat up the exterior without getting the juices inside too excited.
