Smoked Beef Tenderloin (On Sale)

[Bearcarver]

Great meal John. Lucky you. I NEVER see beef tenderloin on sale--have to take out a 2nd mortgage.

Thats a great idea, dropping the MES temp like that to rest the meat. Gonna try that.

When it comes to corn I just put it in a pot of cold water and bring it to a boil. 3 minutes later the corn is cooked perfectly.

Thank You Gary!!

That's funny you mentioned that. I made 4 ears SV'd (above), and the next day Mrs Bear made some with her boiling water method, and I can't tell the difference.

So to me using SV for Sweet Corn isn't worth the hassle.

Also: I've started letting my Prime Ribs rest in my MES (brought down to Meat Internal Temp) years ago. It works Great.

And Thanks for the Points.

I looked today at beef I saw and thought was tenderloin.. It was whole NY strip for $7.99 per lb.. They were 7 to 10 lbs . Dam!

Yeah that's pretty high for NY Strip!!  I don't buy it at all any more.

I just saw our "Giant" food store put the Beef Tenderloin back up again, only it's now $18.99 instead of the old $17.99.

Yep.. I thought it was high too.. but before I looked at the label I thought it was tenderloin.. they stopped putting the tenderloin out now and only have the strip roasts or whatever they are [emoji]129300[/emoji]. You can get the trimmed up steaks cheaper than that sometimes. The big strip pieces you don't really get to see the marbeling either.

I quit buying NY Strip Steaks because the ones I get around here are full of gristle.

However one time I got a NY Strip roast @ $5.98, and I smoked it, and it was Awesome!!!

Here's that one:

If they'd put them on sale more often, I'd buy them more often, because they really are Awesome, even without much fat.

And Thanks for the Points.

Hard to tell---A lot of redacted black-outs on the label.

The 3 times I bought Beef Tenderloin was at $10.99, $6.99, and $7.99.

I will not buy it again unless it's below $8, like $7.99 or less. (for the time being anyway)

Same rule for my Prime Ribs (Choice), but I usually catch PR on sales for $6.99 or less.

I took the pic at the store with my phone and then I did an edit job on the label. Didn't want to show the stores name and location.

Hey Richie!!

I went back & looked closer at some of my other Pictures, and found that this Beef Tenderloin was marked "Australian Grass Fed Beef".

Tasted just like any other Beef Tenderloin, to me.

Thanks for the Wake-up !!
