Best Filet Mignon - Grilling the Perfect Filet

[@williamyoung3164]

I've been grilling Filet Mignon for Christmas for 15+ years. It's been hit or miss, depending on weather and my "experimenting" with different methods. This morning, I watched your video and when it came time to grill the filets, I followed your instructions to the letter. All six filets came out perfect and the family raved. Thank you for this invaluable information. I've bookmarked your video and set a reminder for next Christmas as a reminder to watch the video again. Thank you so much for the help.

I just made this for dinner tonight. I followed his exact instructions except for i had to leave a tad longer bc my grill topped out at 400. I used a meat thermometer along the way as well. This was by far one of the best meals ive made. Restaurant quality. My husband loved it and he is a big meat eater and so it was a success. Amazingly tender, juicy, and i even made the perfect diamond grill marks. I feel like i can actually cook! Thank u!

[@litsabarber369]

I have done this many times before with great success, question should the lid be open or closed each time you turn the steaks? I alway close the lid to keep the heat and have the steaks cook to the proper temperature . We like medium rare.Steve B

[@BestFiletMignon]

The decision to keep the lid open or closed depends on temperature management. If you can maintain proper temperature with the lid open, no need to close it. If you're in a colder climate, then go ahead and close it. You know your grill's performance and weather better than us. Hope that helps.

Great video but the 3 minute turn and flip is really going to depend on the thickness of the steak you can't just use that for every filet. Just curious as to what temp you pulled the steak and where you cooking directly over the flame or did you have the middle burner off?

[@KeithGrommes]

I just wanted to thank you for taking your time out to make this video. My name is Keith. My wife and I live in Paso Robles, CA (Wine country) and we just purchased 4 beautiful 8 oz fillets. I'm curious, earlier you said "at this point I don't like to use salt," but shortly before grilling you added salt anyway. So you do want to add salt, but just not at that particular point? Also, just to be clear, I should grill the fillets at 500 degrees with the lid open. Also, what are your thoughts about adding bacon to the rim of the steaks? One more question, does thickness matter in terms of how long you cook them? I downloaded the Omaha Steak timer which I've used on Ribeye's but now I'm a 100% fillet and red wine man!

[@BestFiletMignon]

Keith G We prefer not to salt until we're close to grilling time so as to not draw moisture out of the meat. Some take a different position on this but that's ours. 500 degrees with the lid open is fine though we have moved to a Solaire Infrared Grill since shooting this video and it generates 1000 degrees with the lid open. Sears like nobody's business. We know people like wrapping their filets in bacon. We LOVE bacon but our filets are so good that they don't need it. It's entirely up to you. Our 12 oz steaks take a little longer than our 6 and 8 oz because they're taller but the difference is negligible. Thanks for acknowledging, happy grilling, and happy imbibing!

[@amadeus2499]

exactly - don't add salt until right before placing onto grill

[@BestFiletMignon]

Distance from the flame doesn't matter. Temperature on the grill surface is the key. Since shooting this video, we have moved to infrared grilling for the increased temperature they provide. We consistently see 1000° which sears the meat and seals in the juices.

[@buddybuck]

+BestFiletMignon so I cooked my filet when my grill got to 400 degrees and followed your instructions and it worked great. It took 15 minutes to get it to 400. Should I keep waiting to try and get it to 500? Seems like it will burn through all my propane quick.

[@BestFiletMignon]

+Buddy Buck If your steaks turned out great at 400, no need to wait until 500. No sense burning up all that propane for one meal.

[@buddybuck]

That's kinda what I was thinking. Thanks BestFiletMignon ! Awesome video!!

[@BestFiletMignon]

+Buddy Buck Thank you!

[@step4560]

On a gas grill, distance from the flame might not matter. On a charcoal grill, distance usually can't come into play, since most are fixed. But don't tell me that getting the meat closer to the coles, on say a Weber, wouldn't make a difference. There are two variables in cooking, the amount of heat that you are using and how coupled that is to what you are cooking... and when you say grill surface, are you referring to a cast iron grill grates at 1000° or 1000° at whatever the level of whatever the grill is made of? You're being somewhat cryptic, nonetheless I appreciate you're awesome videos...

awesome video. how long should the steaks stay covered under the tin foil?

[@BestFiletMignon]

Until you're ready to serve them. Thank you for the compliment.

[@BM-rd7vq]

At least 10 minutes, 15 if you can.

Is it ok to have the grill open or do I have to close it as it’s cooking? Genuine question btw, I’m new to grilling.

[@BestFiletMignon]

That video was shot in SoCal in October so temperatures were mild, hence the open lid. If keeping your grill hot requires a closed lid, have at it. Hope that helps and thank you for writing.

Nice video

[@johnfdm123]

Didn't cut the steak so we could see how done it was?

[@BestFiletMignon]

A valid observation we've been notified of countless times before. A simple oversight. Enjoy Mother's Day.
