Smoked Filet Mignon
Ingredients
4 lbs Beef Filets
2 tbsp Olive oil
4 Garlic Cloves (crushed)
Salt
Ground Pepper
Suggested wood for smoking:
Mesquite or cherry wood chips
Directions
Season meat with garlic cloves, salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in large frying pan. Sear/brown meat on all sides. This will seal in juices before smoking. Wrap each fillet in heavy aluminum foil leaving the tops of each uncovered. Sprinkle a little olive oil on top of each filet. Place foil wrapped filets in 225 degree pre heated smoker and cook about 20- 30 minutes. Medium rare filet will have an internal temperature of 140 degrees when checked with thermometer. Allow meat to cool slightly then carve into ½ inch slices. Serve at room temperature.
