Stoney River - Coffee Cured Filet image

Just like the Coffee Cured Filet from Stoney River. Sounded weird when I first heard of it, but after tasting it, it tastes nothing like coffee and is an unbelievably flavorful steak. A staple in our household since perfecting the recipe!

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 beef tenderloin, filet
2 1/2 cups strong espresso or 2 1/2 cups darkest roast non-flavored coffee
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup molasses (Regular Strength)
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt (or Sea Salt)
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 cup ice

Steps:

  • Place all the liquid and dry ingredients into a large bowl or zip-lock bag and mix until dissolved.
  • (HINT: Measure the olive oil first and then the molasses, it will slide right out of the measuring cup if you do the oil first).
  • Add ice to cool the mixture.
  • Add the filets and marinate at least 6 hours for best results. I like to mix them up and flip the meat every couple of hours, but not required.
  • When ready to cook the steaks, heat an iron skillet or griddle as hot as you can get it and sear the outside of the steaks for a minute or two until dark and crisp on the outside, then place on the grill to cook to your wellness liking the rest of the time.
  • (HINT: I recommend searing the steaks outside on a grill side burner if possible. It makes a mess of your cooktop inside otherwise.).
