Jackson Hole Filet Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Filet

   Preheat your oven to 225°F (107°C). Rub the filet mignon with olive oil, then season generously with kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on all sides.

2. 2

   Prepare the Hickory Wood Chips

   Soak the hickory wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes. Drain and set aside.

3. 3

   Slow Roast the Filet

   Place the filet in a roasting pan and insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the steak. Place the soaked hickory chips in a smoker box or directly on the coals if using a charcoal grill.

4. 4

   Cook the Steak

   Transfer the roasting pan to the preheated oven and cook until the internal temperature reaches 125°F (52°C) for medium-rare, about 45-60 minutes.

5. 5

   Sear the Filet

   Heat a skillet over high heat. Add butter and let it melt. Once the filet is done roasting, sear it in the skillet for 1-2 minutes on each side until a nice crust forms.

6. 6

   Rest and Serve

   Remove the filet from the skillet and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh rosemary and serve.
