A lot of people have a difficult time learning How to Grill the
Perfect fillet mostly for fear of the many things that can go wrong
with it such as ending up with a burnt or dried up piece of meat. It
is perfectly understandable that there are people who are still scared
to attempt to learn How to Grill the Perfect fillet because it sounds
intimidating. But the truth is, less is more when it comes to this
kind of steak. Only minor preparations are required and it is probably
one of the easiest to grill. Simply follow these tips on How to Grill
the Perfect fillet:
1. Allow your meat to reach room temperature before you start cooking.
2. Season it with freshly ground black pepper and let it sit for about
30 to 45 minutes. If you want, you can try taking a strip of bacon,
wrap it around the meat, and pin it with a toothpick that has been
soaked in water for about 20 minutes. This helps to prevent the meat
from drying out and it gives flavor to the steak as well.
3. Place the steak on the grill. After about two minutes, gently lift
and turn the meat 90 degrees and let it grill for three minutes to
create grill marks on each side. A very important tip to remember on
How to Grill the Perfect fillet is to use tongs or a spatula to handle
the steak because a fork can pierce through the meat and allow the
juices to ooze out and make the meat dry up.
4. Test your steak for doneness without piercing it. Do this by
pressing the meat with your finger. The meat is still rare if it
leaves an indention of your finger on the surface. If it feels firm,
then the steak is well done.
5. Remove it from the grill once the steak has reached your desired
doneness. Let it rest for about two to three minutes to let the juices
redistribute throughout the meat.
These simple steps prove that it doesn't take a seasoned chef to learn
the art of How to Grill the Perfect fillet. Just simply follow these
easy instructions and you will be rewarded in the end with a perfect
fillet that you just grilled yourself. Enjoy!
