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.
Before cooking the filet mignon roast, bring to room temperature. Preheat your oven to 475 degrees. In a large roasting pan, place the filet mignon roast fat side up, and rub olive oil over the meat.Generously season with kosher salt, pepper, and about a tablespoon of thyme. Place in the oven for about 12-15 minutes for 2-3 pound roast or 15-20 minutes for 4-5 pound roast.Reduce heat to 350 and cook an additional 20-25 minutes. Use a meat thermometer to determine when it is done to suit your taste (125 for rare and 135 for medium).efore cooking the filet mignon roast, bring to room temperature.
