Cold Roasted Fillet of Beef

COLD ROASTED FILLET OF BEEF

Makes 8 to 10 servings

  • 1 fillet of beef (3 1/2 to 4 pounds), trimmed and tied (ask your butcher to do this for you), at room temperature
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • Salt to taste

Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Rub the meat with the black pepper, oil, and soy. Place the fillet in an oiled roasting pan and roast for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a meat thermometer registers 130 to 140 degrees for medium-rare, 145 to 150 degrees for medium. Remove from the oven and let cool. The fillet can be prepared up to two days in advance, then wrapped and stored in the refrigerator.

When ready to serve, slice the fillet crosswise into thin slices.

Great for Tailgating!

If you something if bit easier here are some ideas from our website. We have shrimp or crawfish pies as well as bite-size crab cakes, which can be heated before leaving the house and packed in insulated containers to keep them warm for service at the stadium. Bring along some tartar or cocktail sauce and you’ll have everyone eating out of your hand. Or, select from a large assortment of fresh and smoked sausages (to throw on the grill) and to serve with any of Tabasco’s condiments such as spicy mustard, spicy mayonnaise or spicy ketchup! That’ll get your taste buds tingling for sure!

And what could be simpler than carrying along a few jars of Tabasco’s 7-Spice Chili (original or spicy) to which you add to browned ground beef. Bring lots of crackers or chips! Hey, you might want to try Fowler’s False Alarm Chili Kit and make several batches of different kinds of chili! Baby, if it’s cold outside, chili will certainly take the chill off! Better bring some Zapp’s potato chips as well.

Now, you do have another choice for football parties. If you don’t want to make a trip to the stadium or can’t attend the game, by all means host a small party at your home to watch your favorite teams on the tube.

A slow-cooked brisket or a roast fillet of beef can be prepared ahead of time, then sliced thinly for sandwiches. Have pistolettes or an assortment of sliced breads or rolls to offer guests. To make a spread for the bread, combine equal parts of mayonnaise and Creole mustard.
