With so many cuts of beef, cooking techniques, seasonings and sauces to choose from,\u00a0quick and easy beef recipes are a top choice when it comes to dinner. And while you might reflexively reach for ground beef when cooking a weeknight meal, steak recipes<\/a> like beef tournedos can be just as effortless.<\/p>\n

While tournedos of beef are lean, they’re also super tender and flavorful. Grilling the meat while basting it with a simple-yet-complex sauce full of sweet, tangy and savory flavors enhances them. These steaks pair well with everyday side dishes like roasted potatoes and steamed asparagus, but are sophisticated enough to serve at a dinner party with a more elaborate spread.<\/p>\n

What are beef tournedos?<\/h2>\n

Beef tournedos is not the name of a recipe but a specific cut of beef. Tournedos are round steaks cut from the thinner end of the beef tenderloin, which is one of the best cuts of meat<\/a>. These steaks might be on the smaller side, but they’re no less tender or full of savory meatiness. Filet mignon also comes from the tenderloin; it’s cut from the center of the loin and generally has a larger diameter due to the shape of the muscle.<\/p>\n
