Decide whether to cook your filet primarily over high heat or low heat. There are pretty much two camps when it comes to how to cook meat: the high heat camp and the low heat camp. The high heat camp is straightforward: Cook the filet for 2-5 minutes per side over high heat, searing it to seal in the juices. While this method can certainly produce a fine filet mignon, the searing to seal in the juices idea has been debunked.
Some general guidelines for roasting times are: at 425 degrees F, a 2- to 3-lb. whole filet mignon will be done in 35 to 40 minutes and a 4- to 6-lb. cut will take 45 to 60 minutes. Use temperature as your precise guide for doneness and remove the roast from the oven when it is 5 degrees below the final temperature.eason your whole filet mignon with a dry rub. Make a dry rub by combining a blend of herbs and spices that suit your taste or the flavor of the dish. Use a bit of salt and pepper for the simplest version of a dry rub.
