Ingredients
- 1 beef tenderloin, trimmed
- Meat Church Holy Cow
- Meat Church Garlic and Herb
- 2 tablespoons English mustard
- Horseradish cream sauce:
- 1 cup mayo
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup freshly prepared horseradish
- 1-2 tablespoons Meat Church Holy Cow
- Juice of 1 lemon cheek
- 1 ounce truffle oil, optional
Tools
- Butcher’s twine
- Instant-read thermometer
Method
- Prepare smoker:
- Prepare your smoker at 250 degrees. I recommend a medium smoke wood or pellets such as oak, hickory or pecan.
- Prepare the tenderloin:
- Trim your tenderloin.
- In this video I removed the tail and chain. You can also leave the tail and fold it underneath. Form as even of a tube out of the tenderloin as you can.
- Tie loops around the tenderloin with butcher's twine every few inches to help it keep an even shape throughout the cook.
- Slather with mustard.
- Season moderately with Meat Church Holy Cow and heavily with Garlic and Herb.
- Allow to adhere for one hour.
- Smoke the tenderloin:
- Place the tenderloin directly on the cooking grate.
- Rotate the tenderloin during the cook if it is uneven in any way. Otherwise, do not do anything.
- While the tenderloin is cooking, prepare grill with a direct heat setup for searing and make the horseradish cream.
- Prepare horseradish cream:
- Mix the mayo, sour cream and add in desired amount of horseradish to taste.
- Add Holy Cow.
- Add the juice from one cheek of lemon.
- Add truffle oil, optional.
- Sear the tenderloin:
- Cast iron pan can be used instead of a grill.
- Once the tenderloin has reached the desired internal temperature (recipe quotes 110), remove it from the grill, lightly tent with foil and let it rest for 10 minutes.
- Clip off the butcher’s twine.
- Sear from 2-3 minutes on each side, or longer to achieve desired doneness.
- Remove from the grill and slice.
