This beef tenderloin recipe is magic. The result is delicious enough for a special occasion, yet it is simple enough to be made on a weeknight. You can let the beef tenderloin chill for up to 24 hours, if desired. If you prefer medium, cook the tenderloin until it reaches an internal temperature of 140-145 degrees. Purchasing high quality meat will make all of the difference in the tenderness and flavor of the final product. Serve this main with roasted potatoes, asparagus, and a glass of red wine.

This is a wonderful recipe for Beef Tenderloin. I love the crusted topping which adds great flavor to the beef. I added additional butter, salt, pepper, garlic, and mustard to cover sides and ends of the tenderloin. Didn't want anyone to miss out on the good taste. Many recipes I've seen tend to look like the tenderloin is tired. This and a few others seem "perky" in comparison.
