Cut Your Own Filet Mignons To Cook Better Steaks

UPDATE 2024: Butcher Wizard Knife Collection is now available. We have a 10” breaking knife and a 6” boning knife. Check it out at butcherwizardshop.com
In this video we will trim a whole beef tenderloin nice looking steaks. In addition to steaks I will show you what you can do with all the other cuts that come from the tenderloin. We got several 6 oz filet mignons, 1 12 oz filet Mignons, and so trim for grinding hamburgers.

    I watched 5 or 6 vids of "dressing up" a beef tenderloin and this one is my favorite. It's very well explained and it works! I've cleaned up two nice pieces and both have turned out very nice. I save $5.00 per pound and only lose about 1 lb. when I'm finished. If you think you can do this with a Walmart knife, think again. If you're serious about trimming your own meat, i.e., beef, chicken, pork, invest in a good chef's knife and a filet knife. Have them professionally sharpened or learn to DIY. (It's a hobby of mine)

    You can use the back side of your knife instead of the cutting edge. It helps to prevent cutting the meat.

    I have had beef tenderloin every single Christmas Eve since I was a small child. As a teenager I worked at a small grocery store were the butchers were always shocked when I picked up that 8 pounder my mom had ordered. I always go to my butcher the day after Thanksgiving and ask them to find me the biggest one possible. Normally over 6 pounds. This is our family's one tradition that hasn't waned over the years. We always had "Big Meat" over "Big Gifts".

    I cut it up a couple weeks ago and I finally had my first filet mignon (I'm too cheap to pay steak house prices for that specific cut lol). It was amazing, and I saved a lot of money. Thanks for doing these videos, I wouldn't have thought to do this on my own.

    I’m into canning so the meat trash I freeze and throw it in later on to make my beef bone froth. I do the same with any chicken scraps and carcass and skin or fat. I make and can my own chkn broth. Same with turkey. I’ve never done this with pork though. Maybe I will . Not sure.

    The only thing that is thrown away is the silver skin. It is a very tough connective tissue that brings no flavor to the party. When you look at it the inedible waste on a whole tenderloin is really quite low.
