Ingredients:
- 1 beef tenderloin
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 1/2 tablespoon fresh rosemary
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1/4 teaspoon cracked black pepper
- Mayonnaise
- Horseradish
- Dijon mustard
- Lemon juice
Instructions:
-
Prepare Marinade: In a food processor, combine olive oil, fresh herbs, garlic, and black pepper. Blend until it forms a smooth paste.
-
Marinate Beef: Coat the beef tenderloin evenly with the herb paste. Wrap it securely in plastic wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of 48 hours. This extended marination enhances the flavors and tenderness of the beef.
-
Preheat Grill: Remove the marinated beef from the refrigerator at least 2 hours before cooking to allow it to come to room temperature. Meanwhile, preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
-
Sear the Beef: Brush the grill grates lightly with oil to prevent sticking. Place the marinated beef on the grill and sear it on all sides over medium-high heat until nicely charred, approximately 2-3 minutes per side.
-
Add Flavor: Sprinkle the seared beef with salt to enhance its flavor.
-
Infuse Smoky Flavor: For an added depth of flavor, place a pan filled with hickory chips on a lower rack of the grill or surround the coals with it if using a charcoal grill.
-
Grill to Perfection: Transfer the seared beef to a rack positioned above the hickory chips. Grill the tenderloin over medium heat for approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour for rare, or 1 hour 30 minutes to 45 minutes for medium doneness. Adjust the cooking time according to your desired level of doneness.
-
Prepare Horseradish Sauce: While the beef is grilling, prepare the horseradish sauce by whisking together mayonnaise, horseradish, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice in a bowl. Chill the sauce in the refrigerator, ideally making it a day in advance to allow the flavors to meld together.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once the beef is cooked to perfection, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve the thinly sliced grilled tenderloin on toasted French bread and drizzle generously with the prepared horseradish sauce.
