Beef Tenderloin

Prep Time 30 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 3-5 lb beef tenderloin roast
  • olive oil

Tenderloin Rub

  • 1 Tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 Tbsp salt
  • 4 tsp course black pepper
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp beef bouillion

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 475°. Place tenderloin on parchment covered baking sheet and cover with a thin layer of olive oil.
  • Mix together all rub ingredients. Sprinkle rub generously over entire tenderloin roast, making sure to get the sides and ends. Allow the rub to adhere for 20-30 minutes.
  • Place in the oven for 10 minutes at 475°. After 10 minutes, reduce to 425°. Continue cooking until the thickest part reads 125° on a meat thermometer (this is typically about 20-30 minutes).
  • Pull out of the oven and cover in slices of butter. Cover tightly with foil and allow meat to rest and butter to melt for 10-20 minutes.
  • Slice about every ½", and pour melted butter and seasonings back over all the slices before serving.
