Beef tenderloin is a beautiful, tender cut of beef and is what is used to make filet mignon. To make a roast from the tenderloin you can ask your butcher to cut a big center piece from a whole tenderloin, or purchase a whole tenderloin and cut it yourself for this purpose, saving the rest for filet mignon.
Differences Between Beef Tenderloin & Filet Mignon. The tenderloin is part of the psoas muscle of the cow that rests in the backbone, just between the sirloin and the rib. Because itâs not an active muscle, the meat has a tender texture and mild flavor. Steaks cut from the tenderloin are called âfilet mignon,â French for âdaintyâ or âcuteâ fillet. A classic filet mignon measures just 1-inch in diameter, because it should be cut from the tail, or smallest, end of the tenderloin.
