1) defrost, then dry off meat, and cover with 1% of meat's weight in salt (mine was 260g so 2.6g salt). Set on plate uncovered for 24 hours in the refrigerator.
2) sous vide 2-3 hours at 53C. I use the Anova Nano but it shouldn't matter.
3) dry off again, COMPLETELY, and deep fry in lard at 190C for about 50 seconds, until brown color is perfect.
Even without pepper, garlic, etc., it really tastes great, in addition to the famous tenderness. I've had the same cut at nice restaurants (e.g. Zuma) with practically no taste, so kudos to Meat Guy for sourcing some beef for us with intrinsic flavor.

The 180g and 250g filet mignon are both nice thick-cut steaks. 250g makes a good meal for two in my opinion although it depends on your appetite. This over half-pound steak is a bit too large for just me these days. Quality is excellent, the only problem is price (a few times a year it's on sale and becomes better value). Recommended accompaniment : pepper sauce, served with roast potatoes and veg. We have them for special occasions (birthdays, etc.)
I ordered it again and it is so good!

This premium cut of beef, known for its tenderness and fine texture, truly stands out when sourced from grass-fed cattle, as it brings a depth of flavor that is unmatched by conventional beef. Each filet is a testament to the care and quality that goes into grass-fed farming, ensuring that the beef is not only delicious but also healthier and more sustainable.
Thick, meaty, and satisfying!
