Categories     main-dish

Time 3h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 32

1 (3 to 5 pound) beef tenderloin, butt-end or tail-end cut
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup cream sherry
2 tablespoons steak seasoning (recommended: McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning)
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
1/2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
3 sprigs fresh rosemary leaves
3 sprigs fresh thyme leaves
Spinach Stuffing, recipe follows
Serving Suggestion: Marinated and roasted red and yellow peppers, and green salad with Maple Balsamic Vinaigrette, recipe follows
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound frozen chopped spinach
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 to 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
1/2 cup sweet sherry
1 cup fresh bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon chopped fresh basil leaves
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 cup Dijon mustard
1/3 gallon balsamic vinegar
1/4 gallon white vinegar
1 1/2 gallons 10 percent salad oil
1/4 cup dried basil
1 1/2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
1/4 gallon maple syrup

Steps:

  • Trim and remove all silver skin and fat from the beef. Rub meat with the olive oil and then splash with sherry. Continuing to rub beef, then sprinkle the steak seasoning all over the meat. Cover beef on all sides with the fresh herbs, rubbing to coat.
  • Place meat in a shallow pan and allow to rest for 30 minutes. Turn and pat beef with the marinade that has collected in the pan. Allow to rest for an additional 30 minutes.
  • Heat the grill to 500 degrees F.
  • With an 8-inch knife, carefully pierce the meat in the center of 1 end. Cut a hole through that side as far into the fillet as the knife will allow. Turn to the other end and repeat this process, until the hole extends all the way through the fillet. Open the hole like a tunnel, being careful not to break through to the outside of the fillet. Using only small amounts at a time, stuff the cooled Spinach Stuffing into the opening from 1 end to the other.
  • Reduce grill temperature to 400 degrees F.
  • Place the stuffed beef tenderloin on the grill and, turning every 5 to 7 minutes to avoid burning the herbs, cook to an internal temperature of 110 to 120 degrees F. Cooking time for a medium-rare tenderloin is approximately 20 minutes.
  • Once the tenderloin is cooked to your liking and removed from the grill, allow to rest for 10 minutes. Slice into 1/2 to 1-inch medallions. If desired, serve on a bed of roasted marinated red and yellow peppers with a green salad of your choice tossed in Maple Balsamic Vinaigrette.
  • Spinach Stuffing:
  • Heat oil in a saute pan over high heat. Add frozen spinach, garlic, and red pepper flakes, and saute over high heat until the spinach has lost its moisture and is heated through, approximately 3 to 5 minutes. Add sherry and cook for 2 minutes. Add bread crumbs and Romano cheese. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until the ingredients combine into a soft-textured stuffing. If the stuffing seems too dry, add some additional sherry. If the stuffing seems too wet, add more bread crumbs.
  • Remove from heat and add salt and pepper, to taste. Add all fresh herbs and mix gently. Allow to cool before stuffing into tenderloin.
  • Mix the mustard with the vinegars. Add the oil and combine well. Add all the dry seasonings and mix together. Add the maple syrup and stir until combined.

ITALIAN SPINACH STUFFING



Italian Spinach Stuffing image

This is an Italian-American turkey stuffing that was invented in New Jersey by Pietronilla Conte, who emigrated from the Italian region of Molise in the early 20th century. Ms. Conte's granddaughter Lisa shared the recipe (which her mother, Carmela, also prepares) with us. "She must have used a stuffing that she knew in Italy," Lisa Conte said of her grandmother. "And she just looked at the turkey as a larger thing to stuff." The gizzards give the stuffing its depth of flavor (like giblet gravy), but you could leave them out, or substitute an equal amount of livers, or 6 ounces of pancetta or bacon.

Categories     stuffing and dressing, side dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 12 to 14 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

5 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups chopped sweet onion (about 1 large onion)
8 cloves garlic, minced
4 (10-ounce) boxes frozen chopped spinach, thawed, drained and squeezed dry
2 cups chopped white mushrooms caps
Salt and black pepper
2 pounds well-trimmed chicken or turkey gizzards
4 large eggs
1 1/2 cups grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
1 cup unseasoned bread crumbs
1/2 cup chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onions and sauté, stirring, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add garlic, spinach and mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until well mixed and heated through, about 5 minutes. Season mixture to taste with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Finely mince chicken gizzards. (You can do this by hand or in a food processor, but be careful not to overprocess.) Season gizzards all over with salt. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add gizzards and sauté, stirring often, until cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain off any drippings, then stir gizzards into spinach mixture. Let cool to room temperature.
  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. When spinach mixture is cool, add eggs, cheese, bread crumbs and parsley and stir until well combined. Transfer stuffing to a 3-quart casserole dish and bake, covered, 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of brisket. Look for a brisket that is well-marbled with fat, as this will help keep the meat moist during cooking. For the best flavor and texture, choose a brisket that is at least 12 pounds.
  • Prepare the brisket properly. Trim any excess fat from the brisket and score the fat cap with a sharp knife. This will help the brisket cook evenly and absorb the flavors of the rub.
  • Use a flavorful rub. A good rub will help to create a delicious crust on the brisket. Look for a rub that contains a variety of spices, such as paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
  • Cook the brisket slowly and low. The best way to cook a brisket is to cook it slowly and low, over a period of 8-12 hours. This will allow the brisket to become tender and flavorful.
  • Let the brisket rest before carving. Once the brisket is cooked, let it rest for at least 30 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Brisket is a delicious and versatile cut of meat that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. Whether you are cooking it for a special occasion or just a weeknight dinner, these tips will help you to create a perfect brisket every time. With a little planning and effort, you can create a delicious and impressive meal that your family and friends will love.
