Steps:
- To make the horseradish cream sauce, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, prepared horseradish and chives; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Preheat oven to 275 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and coat with nonstick spray. In a small bowl, combine garlic, rosemary, thyme, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 tablespoon pepper. Using paper towels, pat tenderloin dry. Drizzle with olive oil; season with garlic mixture, gently pressing to adhere. Place tenderloin onto the prepared baking sheet. Place into oven and bake until it reaches an internal temperature of 130-135 degrees F for medium-rare, about 50 minutes to 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until desired doneness. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing. Serve immediately with horseradish cream sauce.
BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH RED WINE, ANCHOVIES, GARLIC AND THYME
"How To Eat" by Nigella Lawson is a cookbook, but one of its great joys is its narrative form: Very few of the recipes are written in standard recipe format. This recipe, from the Dinner chapter, is an exception. "This, to me, is the perfect dinner," Ms. Lawson writes, "simple, impeccable, beautiful." She suggests serving it with a pea and avocado salad, and adding arugula leaves not only for decorative reasons but also because "its pepperiness perfectly offsets the salty pungency of the anchovy-red-wine sauce."

Steps:
- In a large, heavy-bottomed Dutch oven or pot in which the beef will fit comfortably (the two pieces mustn't touch each other, and no scrunching at the ends), heat 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon oil over lowish heat. Add the shallots, sprinkle with a little salt, and sauté until soft and transparent but in no way coloring, about 5 minutes. Add the thyme and give 2 more minutes, stirring, then add the garlic and push about the pot.
- Add the anchovies and cook until they've started fusing with the oniony, buttery, oily mess in the pot. Transfer this shallot mixture to a bowl for a minute so you can brown the meat.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the pot and turn up the heat. Pat the beef dry and season it all over with salt and pepper. Sear the beef on all sides, sprinkling with the sugar as you do so, till you've got a good crusty exterior. Add the brandy, let it bubble up a bit, then pour in the wine.
- Return the shallot mixture to the pot. Lower the heat and turn the meat over. Give everything a good stir to make sure the shallots, garlic and so on are not burning or sticking. Cover and cook for 10 minutes - the meat is braising, frying and steaming all at the same time; as it cooks it breathes in flavor.
- Uncover, peek in, prod or poke. If the meat is springy, it's rare; springy but with some resistance, medium-rare to medium. Turn the meat over, cover again, and leave for another 5 to 10 minutes, depending on your findings and taste. When the meat is almost as you like it, transfer it to a cutting board (it will cook a little more as it rests) and get on with the sauce. And you can do all this before you sit down for the first course.
- Fish out the garlic from the pot with a spoon. Then turn up the heat and let the sauce bubble up a good bit, and taste, adding salt, if needed, and pepper. You may want to add some water. Take off the heat, but warm up before serving, at which time you should first pour into it the meat juices that have run out of the cooked beef as it stands and whisk in the remaining chilled, diced butter.
- Carve the beef, arrange on a large, warmed platter, and surround with arugula. Drizzle over some of the sauce, leaving the rest in a sauce boat or pitcher for people to pour for themselves.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
- Place the tenderloin on a roasting rack. Sprinkle generously with kosher salt and sugar, which will deepen the savory flavors.
- Press the crushed peppercorns all over the surface of the meat. Insert a meat thermometer and place in the oven until the beef registers 120 to 125 degrees F for medium-rare/rare. Beef will probably cook in 20 to 25 minutes depending on its temp before it goes in the oven.
- While the meat is roasting, melt the butter with the garlic in a small skillet, and allow the butter to slightly brown. Remove the garlic and discard.
- Remove the meat when it's done and pour the garlic butter over gently (it should sizzle when it hits the meat). Cover the meat loosely with foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:
- Prepare beef: Trim off excess fat with a sharp knife. Fold thin tip end under to approximate the thickness of the rest of the roast. Tie with butcher's twine, then keep tying the roast with twine every 11/2 to 2 inches (to help the roast keep its shape). Snip silverskin with scissors to keep roast from bowing during cooking. Then, mix oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, pepper and salt; rub over roast to coat. Set meat aside.
- Either build a charcoal fire in half the grill or turn all gas burners on high for 10 minutes. Lubricate grate with an oil-soaked rag using tongs. Place beef on hot rack and close lid; grill until well-seared, about 5 minutes. Turn meat and close lid; grill until well-seared on second side, another 5 minutes.
- Move meat to the charcoal grill's cool side, or turn off burner directly underneath the meat and turn remaining one or two burners (depending on grill style) to medium. Cook until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest section registers 130 degrees for rosy pink, 45 to 60 minutes, depending on tenderloin size and grill. Let meat rest 15 minutes before carving.
