A whole roast was made of the world’s best filet mignon steak? That’s what Today Gourmet’s Chateaubriand, the roast-sized filet mignon, delivers. The secret of the chateaubriand’s tenderness is due to its location on the animal. The tenderloin is a non-weight-bearing muscle that gets minimal exercise. Inactivity keeps the muscle from growing too tough through repetitive movement. It is aged at least 28 days to maximize that tenderness for an even better eating experience naturally. Although incredibly tender, a chateaubriand contains less marbling – the small streaks of intramuscular fat – compared to a prime rib roast. But cook it right, and it’s incredibly tender – you can cut the pieces of meat with a dull butter knife. This roast-size filet mignon is designed to impress with its mild, delicate beef flavor and incredible tenderness. Here’s everything you need to know about this one-of-a-kind cut of beef. Chateaubriand is the most decadent, tender beef roast, perfect for special occasions and holidays.
