BBQ Latin Grilled Filet Mignon with Chimichurri and Grilled Tortillas


BBQ Latin Grilled Filet Mignon with Chimichurri and Grilled Tortillas

INGREDIENTS

  • 2lbs filet tenderloin cut into 3-4 oz medallions
  • Cumin
  • BB Trinity Rub
  • Chili powder
  • 2 cloves finely chopped garlic
  • 1 cup Olive oil
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 bunch Cilantro rough chop
  • 1/8 cup finely chopped Vidalia onion
  • 1 tsp allepo pepper
  • 1tsp fresh lemon juice
  • One pack of corn tortillas or flour tortillas Street Taco size
  • One can of olive oil cooking spray or butter-flavored cooking spray
  • B&B Oak Lump Charcoal
  • B&B Pecan Smoking Chips (Soak in rum or water)



INSTRUCTIONS

  1. First soak those smoking chips.
  2. Marinate filet tenderloin medallions wit cumin, Trinity rub, a little bit of sea salt, pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Set aside
  3. Prepare chimichurri
  4. In a bowl add cilantro, onion, garlic, Aleppo pepper, a pinch of cumin, a half a cup of olive oil, red wine vinegar and a squeeze of fresh lemon.  Give it a stir and set aside.
  5. Then light the grill and get that going.
  6. When your grill is ready, add the smoking chips and place your filet tenderloins over the fire and close the lid..
  7. Don’t open it and let it grill for approximately 4 minutes, then open the grill, flip it over, and if you want more of a smoky flavor, add more smoking chips. After you flip it over, grill for another three to four minutes.  This will keep your filet tenderloins at that medium temperature so you can cook a little longer if you like more of a well-done cook, but don’t overcook because filet mignon is a very lean meat so you don’t want it to dry out or else use another cut of meat that has more of a marbling.
  8. Take the meat off the grill place it on a plate.  Brush off your grill grates. For the corn tortillas, you will have to stand over the grill for this one.
  9. Spray your tortilla on each side before placing them on the grill because they cook really quick.
  10. Throw your tortillas on for just probably 30 seconds on each side and take right off the grill.
  11. Now you can serve corn on the cob for a side dish which is perfect for this, either grilling them or just boiling them
  12. Place your filet tenderloins on the plate then spoon over your chimichurri and enjoy.
