Beef Tenderloin how to cut Filet Mignon Part 2



Clean up flap of fat 
Remove silver skin carefully from heel to tip of the boning knife. 
Be careful not to cut away meat. 
Clean loin of beef
Chain meat. Some people say the time it takes to clean and separate silver skin and fat from meat takes to long and isn't worth it but taking a few extra minutes and being careful can pay off in the long run and give you back a lot of meat to use for stir fry, fajitas, or even burritos. 

Look at all that meat!!!! Well worth the extra 10 minutes it took to clean the chain.

  2. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have been looking for a site to help me with this for an hour! All the instructions start with your little round piece of meat and I had no idea how to get to that. Thank you for putting this out there.
