Grilled Beef Tenderloin is infused with delicious flavor and super easy to make. Serve with horseradish, mashed potatoes, and green beans.

Ingredients

  • 2 tsp. minced fresh rosemary
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 (2-lb.) center-cut beef tenderloin, tied with twine at 1½" intervals
  • 1/2 c. (1 stick) butter, softened
  • 1 small shallot, minced
  • 1 tbsp. finely chopped parsley
  • 1 tbsp. neutral oil (such as canola or vegetable)

Directions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl, mix rosemary, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Rub all over the beef and place beef on a wire rack placed inside a rimmed baking sheet. Refrigerate, uncovered, for at least 4 hours or ideally overnight. Let the beef come to room temperature before grilling.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, mash together the butter, shallot, parsley, and ½ teaspoon salt with a rubber spatula. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

  3. 3

    Preheat grill to medium high for 3 minutes. Drizzle the oil evenly over the beef.

  4. 4

    Grill the beef, turning every 5 minutes, until an instant read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the beef reads 125° for rare, 135° for medium rare and 145° for medium, 25 to 35 minutes.

  5. 5

    Let the meat rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving with the shallot-herb butter.
