Fillet

The tenderloin is the least used muscle in a steer’s body and meltingly tender. This delicately flavoured cut is low in fat but if left to age, it can still be rich and flavoursome. It’s a very popular prime cut for grilling, frying (serve as rare as you dare) or can be left whole for a very special roast.
