This is actually my go meat over any other type based on versatility. As you can see, a pack of 4 tenderloin filet is very inexpensive. I use each file in a different cut for several meals. For instance, I use almost one filet for my bistec’s for 2 people in today’s recipe. Then I use the second filet to roast in the oven. The third filet I cut “filet mignon” style and wrap with bacon to mimic the mignon recipe, or I leave it without and pan sear it until brown and 100% cooked. Finally, I cut the 4th filet in cubes for two different meals, my tenderloin chili and my “carne frita” (fried pork chunks.) Boom! Category: Entrée Approx.
