I always just make turkey for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Sometimes I do a ham for Christmas, but both my mom and wife don’t really like ham that much. I have had a tenderloin roast at my BIL’s a few times and man it is good so I figured I would make one for Christmas.

My BIL gave me his recipe that includes doing a wine reduction sauce. I have also been looking at some other recipes. I am curious if anyone has any recipes they really like that include some type of sauce. I have never made a tenderloin roast before and don’t want to screw up a $180 piece of meat!

Looks awesome! Do you have a recipe you can share?

While I respect nhracecraft’s suggestion… he is wrong as far as two words for tenderloin.

Beef Wellington. (Video recipe I used posted beneath my pictures)


I cut the best part out of a whole tenderloin. Coleman’s mustard, shiitake and chestnut, prosciutto, and puff pastry.

Damn, it was pretty spectacular.

I regularly use ThermoWorks products when I prepare my steaks/roasts so I receive these emailed recipes from them (BTW their new RFX stuff works great).

No sauce in this recipe, but I have used this method several times and it has turned out very well. I like my tenderloin with a little horseradish on the side.

Good Luck and Merry Christmas!
