Comments

Many factors determine how long it will take for the tenderloin to reach the desired temperature. I do suggest beginning to check your tenderloin after the first 20 minutes regardless of how done you may want it. You can always cook it a little longer but cannot undo an overcooked mistake. Using a probe meat thermometer will help. Rare is 120F and it goes up one temperature every 10 degrees. Medium rare is 130F, while medium is 140F. Keep in mind that meat will continue cooking once taken out of the oven. Usually temperature will rise another 5-10 degrees depending on size. A whole beef tenderloin will serve 8-10 people. Enjoy!

This rub is used at Evins Mill for our beef tenderloin but works well with steaks, ribs, pork chops, chicken, and salmon.
