Make Slow Roasted, Juicy, Tender, Flavorful and of course, Delicious!

Time to break down just a bit and spend a little of that hard earned money for a dinner that will make you remember why you work so hard.......Simply prepared, simply cooked. Delicious side dishes of lightly sauteed asparagus with roasted garlic potatoes are not only easy to prepare, but also full of flavor that compliments the beef tenderloin.  Let the feasting begin!

Slow Roasted Filet of Beef and Basil Parmesan Mayonnaise

Serves 6 to 8
Total time:  2 hours 10 minutes


Ingredients

1 whole filet of beef tenderloin, trimmed and tied (4 1/2 pounds)
3 tablespoons good olive oil
4 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons coarsely ground black pepper
10 to 15 branches fresh tarragon
Basil Parmesan Mayonnaise, for serving, recipe follows

Basil Parmesan Mayonnaise
2 extra-large egg yolks, at room temperature
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil leaves, lightly packed
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup vegetable oil, at room temperature
1/2 cup good olive oil, at room temperature


Preparation

Preheat the oven to 275 degrees.

Use an oven thermometer to be sure your oven temperature is accurate. 

Place the filet on a sheet pan and pat it dry (all over) with paper towels. Brush the filet all over with the oil, reserving about half a tablespoon. Sprinkle it all over with the salt and pepper (it will seem like a lot but believe me, it makes a difference). Place the tarragon branches on the beef, tucking them in under the butchers twine in 4 or 5 places  to keep them in place. Brush the tarragon with the reserved oil. 

Roast the filet of beef for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours, until the temperature registers 125 degrees in the center for rare and 135 degrees for medium-rare. For the truest temperature, insert the instant read thermometer into the end of the roast.  Cover the filet with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 20 minutes. 

Basil Parmesan Mayonnaise
Place the egg yolks, lemon juice, Parmesan, mustard, basil, garlic, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Process for 20 seconds, until smooth. Combine the vegetable oil and olive oil in a 2-cup liquid measuring cup. With the processor running, slowly pour the oil mixture through the feed tube to make a thick emulsion. Taste for seasonings. The mayonnaise is a sauce so it should be highly seasoned. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use; it will keep for up to a week.

Plating/Presentation
Slice thickly and serve warm or at room temperature with Basil Parmesan Mayonnaise, sauteed asparagus and roasted garlic potatoes.
