| Difficulty 3/5 Prep Time 10 MIN Cook Time 6 MIN Serves 4 |
INGREDIENTS
- 4 steaks Filet mignon 6-8 oz (170-225 g)
- 2 tablespoons of garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons of fresh minced thyme
- 2 tablespoons of fresh rosemary minced
- 2 tablespoons coarse pepper
- 2 teaspoons smoked salt
- olive oil
FOR THE SEAR
- 1 bag Broil King® Griller’s Select Pellet
DIRECTIONS
- Mix the rub ingredients thoroughly in a small bowl. Generously coat the steak with olive oil then apply the spice rub on all surfaces of the meat, let rest before grilling.
- Turn your Broil King® Pellet grill on then press the GRILL 600°F (316°C) quick-set button. Follow the standard start-up instructions then preheat the grill completely. Brush or spray your cooking grids with cooking oil.
- Grill directly following the perfect steak grilling guide below. A filet will take generally no more than 6 minutes to achieve the perfect doneness but a thermometer is always the best way to check. You’ll want to remove the meat from the heat when it reaches an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C). Top with some smoked finishing salt and serve immediately.
- Place steak in the 10 o’clock position
- Flip the steak over in that same 10 o’clock position
- Flip the steak into the 2 o’clock position (sear marks line up with the cooking grid)
- Flip the steak over in that same 2 o’clock position
