Filet Mignon (approx 6-8oz)

From HighMark Beef Co., a 5th-generation Texas ranching family raising pasture-based cattle with intention from start to finish, this filet mignon comes from animals that are pasture-raised, grass-fed, and grain-finished for the right balance of flavor and tenderness. It’s known for its unmatched softness, fine grain, and that buttery, melt-in-your-mouth texture that defines a true filet.

What makes it different

Filet mignon is all about precision and care. It’s cut from the tenderloin, a muscle that does very little work, which is what gives it that signature tenderness. It’s naturally lean, with a delicate, clean beef flavor that doesn’t rely on heavy marbling to shine.

How it cooks (and why it matters)

Because it’s so lean, filet benefits from a thoughtful approach. High heat for a quick sear builds a beautiful crust, while keeping the center perfectly tender. Cook in a cast iron or on the grill, and consider finishing with butter or fresh herbs to add a touch of richness.

How we love to use it

Salt, pepper, and a hot pan is all you need. Serve whole for that classic steakhouse feel, or slice into medallions for something a bit more elevated.

Pair with roasted vegetables, a simple salad, or a glass of red wine and call it a night.
