Steps:

• Liberally pepper the beef tenderloin on all sides.
• Brown all sides of the beef tenderloin, set aside so its comes to room temperature.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the salt, rosemary and water. You want the consistency of wet, packable sand.
• Spread a thin layer of the salt on your baking sheet.
• Place the beef tenderloin on top and cover the with remaining salt. Make sure the entire beef tenderloin is covered in the salt mix.
• Bake at 250°F (120°C) for 45-60 minutes or until the internal temperature is about 120°F (48°C) for medium rare.
• Remove and let it rest in the salt crust for 15 minutes.
• Using the back of the spoon, crack the salt crust and remove. Brush away any excess salt and remove the beef tenderloin.
• Slice and serve with roasted vegetables.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Season filets very generously on both sides with salt and pepper (especially pepper), patting in firmly.
• Heat oil in a small skillet over medium-high. Cook filets until desired doneness, 3 to 5 minutes per side (depending on thickness) for medium-rare.
• Remove strings from filets, and serve with Red Wine Sauce, if desired.

Steps:

• Season the steak on both sides with salt and then coat with the peppercorns. Whisk the vinegar and maple syrup in a large bowl and add the shallot; set aside.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Add the steak and cook, undisturbed, until a crust forms, 4 to 5 minutes per side, plus about 1 minute on each of the long edges. Transfer to a cutting board to rest.
• While the steak cooks, heat a second large skillet over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and the mushrooms; cook, undisturbed, until starting to brown, about 3 minutes. Toss, season with salt and continue cooking until well browned and tender, about 5 more minutes.
• Whisk the mustard into the shallot mixture, then whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Add the mesclun, parsley and sautéed mushrooms and toss; season with salt.
• Divide the salad among plates and top with the cheese. Slice the steak and add to the plates.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine peppercorns, 1 tablespoon salt, the sugar, and red-pepper flakes. Rub all over tenderloin to coat. Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour.
• Heat a large ovenproof skillet over high heat until almost smoking. Add oil, and brown meat, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer skillet to oven, and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reaches 120 degrees, about 16 minutes. Remove from oven, and let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with grainy-mustard aioli and squash.
