Filet Mignon, USDA PRIME, U.S. - Chilled (200g)

The USDA PRIME Filet Mignon is considered the king of steaks because of its melt-in-your-mouth texture. A high-grade filet mignon can literally be cut with a fork. This prized cut comes from the middle of the tenderloin which is found inside the rib cage of the cow. Because this muscle is not weight-bearing, the connective tissue is not toughened by exercise, resulting in extremely tender meat. Although this steak can be quite costly when dining out, it's much less expensive to make at home, especially if you purchase a whole tenderloin.
