Ingredients

Directions

  1. Remove the beef tenderloin from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking to ensure even cooking.
  2. Preheat your grill to high heat, aiming for a temperature between 450ðF (232ðC) a (260ðC)nd 500ðF. Clean the grates thoroughly.
  3. Pat the tenderloin dry with paper towels and season generously with kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper on all sides.
  4. Place the tenderloin on the hot grill grate. Sear for about 3 to 4 minutes on the first side without moving it to develop a crust.
  5. Turn the tenderloin using tongs and sear the other long sides for 2 to 3 minutes each, rotating it like a log.
  6. Continue grilling, turning occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 125ðF for medium-rare or 130ðF for medium, approximately 15 to 20 minutes total depending on thickness.
  7. Remove the beef from the grill and transfer it to a cutting board. Tent loosely with foil and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.
  8. Slice the tenderloin into 1/2-inch thick medallions against the grain and serve immediately.
