Premium Filet Mignon in Montreal
Filet mignon is the most tender cut of beef available. We hand-select each piece for quality, so you get perfect results. The meat is lean and buttery. Furthermore, the texture melts in your mouth. At Boucherie Beirut, we cut every steak fresh because tenderness matters.
What Makes Our Filet Mignon Special?
At Boucherie Beirut, we source only premium filet mignon. Each piece has fine grain and minimal fat. We trim by hand, which ensures a clean presentation. As a result, our filets stand apart from store options. Furthermore, we prepare everything fresh for the best taste.
Cut Profile and Characteristics
The filet comes from the tenderloin muscle. This muscle does very little work, so it stays extremely tender. The meat is lean with subtle flavour. Furthermore, the texture is smooth and delicate. Each piece is uniform for even cooking. Learn more about tenderloin cuts.
How to Cook Your Filet Mignon
First, let the steak rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. Next, season simply with salt and pepper. Then, heat your skillet to high. Sear 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. The steak is done at 130°F inside, so use a thermometer. Finally, rest for 5 minutes, since this keeps juices inside.
Best Pairings for Filet Mignon
Filet mignon pairs well with rich sauces like béarnaise or peppercorn. Serve with mashed potatoes, so you complement the tender texture. Additionally, asparagus and roasted mushrooms make classic sides. For an elegant meal, add truffle butter on top, since it enhances the flavour. Furthermore, a smooth red wine completes the experience.
