List of Ingredients
Roaster Oven - Beef Tenderloin
1 whole beef tenderloin, 7 to 9 pounds
2 teaspoons oregano
2 teaspoons basil
2 teaspoons thyme
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground red pepper
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon onion powderRecipe
1. Remove rack from the insert pan. Pour 1 cup water into the insert pan and
preheat roaster to 400°F.
2. Trim off most of the fat covering the tenderloin. Fold thin, flat end of
the tenderloin back toward middle and tie with kitchen twine. This is so the
roast will cook more evenly.
3. Combine all seasonings and rub over roast. Insert meat thermometer. Place
roast on rack and place rack in roaster and replace cover.
4. Roast for 30 minutes before removing cover to check meat thermometer.
Cook to a minimum internal temperature of 140°F for rare. It will take about
10 minutes per pound to reach this temperature. (Other degrees of doneness
available here.)
Yield: 14-20 servings
Note: Be sure to use cotton twine in cooking. Twine that is coated or
nylon-based will melt at oven temperatures and affect the taste and safety
of the meat.
Substitution:
Use garlic powder in place of the onion powder. Or use 1/2 teaspoon of each
instead of 1 teaspoon of onion powder.
