National Filet Mignon Day

National Filet Mignon Day

Today’s Spotlight is on Filet Mignon.
Filet mignon is a cut of beef from the small end of the tenderloin, or psoas major, which is located near the spine of the cow. The tenderloin runs along both sides of the spine and is usually butchered as two long snake-shaped cuts of meat. The tenderloin is sometimes sold whole. The tenderloin is the most well-known muscle on a cow and is also the most tender. Filet mignon is a lean cut of beef, which means you'll enjoy a fork-tender steak without much fat or connective tissue.
Filet mignon is one of the most tender and milder cuts of steak, making it a favorite among steak lovers. It's also one of the most expensive cuts of steak, due to its prized texture and that it's only about 2 to 3% of the total animal.
