Regarded as the finest of all meat cuts, and with good reason! Our Filet Mignon is hand selected, prepared and cut by our team of experienced Butchers here in Aberdeenshire. Cut from British beef and matured for at least 28 days. Fillet is melt-in-the-mouth tender when pan-fried or griddled for the best flavour cooking it on a high heat for a short time. Supreme!

Chef's tip: make sure your pan is smoking hot before quickly searing on each side and don't forget to let the steak rest afterwards.

Cooking Instructions:
 
Cooking guidelines from defrosted: carefully remove the steak from its packaging, pat dry with kitchen paper then allow the meat to come to room temperature for at least 20 minutes.

Pan fry - preheat a large heavy based frying or griddle pan, over a high heat. Once hot add a little oil to the pan or brush directly onto the steak. Season as desired just before adding to the pan. Cook the steaks to your liking following the recommended times: searing all over and turning gently occasionally.

Once you have achieved a good level of caramelisation you may need to lower the heat so as not to overdo the outer surfaces especially when cooking to medium and beyond.

Rare - medium rare: 4-5 minutes in total, rest for 3-5. Internal temperature 45- 52°C
Medium: 6-6½ minutes in total, rest for 3-5. Internal temperature 55- 60°C
Well done: 9-10 minutes in total, rest for 2-3. Internal temperature 65-70°C

Low temperature
Cooking guidelines from defrosted: preheat the oven to 80°C and add a roasting tray to heat up. Bring the meat to room temperature, pat it dry and sear in a hot pan with a little oil for 2-3 minutes, until nicely caramelised.

Season the meat well and set it on the preheated roasting tray. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the meat and set it to 60 - 65°C.

Put the meat in the oven and keep the main part of the thermometer outside the door. Cook for 45-60 minutes. Keep the oven door closed. When the thermometer bleeps, your steaks are ready - it's as simple as that. No need to rest - slice and serve straight away.
