Steps:
- Season steaks with seasoned salt and black pepper, and arrange in a single layer in a large baking dish. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, mustard, and rosemary. Pour mixture over filets, and turn to coat. Marinate for up to 30 minutes.
- While you are marinating the meat, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onion slices in butter until soft, then stir in sugar. Continue cooking until onions are caramelized. Set aside.
- Preheat grill for high heat on one side, and medium heat on the other side.
- Lightly oil the grill grate. Place steaks on the hot side of the grill, and cook for 10 minutes, turning once. When the steaks are almost done, move to the cooler side of the grill. Top each filet with a quarter of the caramelized onions and blue cheese. Close the lid, and continue cooking until the cheese is melted.

Steps:
- For the dressing, mash the blue cheese with a fork and blend with the sour cream, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.
- To make the sandwiches, cut the bread into 8 slices, each slice 1/4 inch thick. Spread 4 of the slices thickly with the dressing. Top with slices of beef and arugula and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spread the rest of the slices of bread very lightly with butter and place, butter-side down, on top of the beef.
- Preheat oven 500 degrees F.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter.
- Place beef on a baking sheet and pat the outside dry with a paper towel. Using a pastry brush coat the beef with the melted butter. Sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper. Roast for 25 minutes at 500 degrees F for medium rare.
- Remove the beef from the oven, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest at room temperature for 20 minutes before slicing.

Steps:
- Begin by tying the filet mignon pieces: Lay the meat on a cutting board and wrap a piece of twine around the outside of each piece. Pull the twine tightly so that the meat is secure and tie a knot. Sprinkle both sides of the meat generously with salt and pepper.
- In a medium saute pan over high heat, add 2 tablespoons of the butter, the olive oil and garlic. When the butter begins to bubble, add the filet mignon pieces. Tip the pan slightly and baste the tops with the butter and olive oil. Cook until deeply browned, about 3 minutes, and then flip and continue cooking and basting on the other side. Next, turn the pieces on their sides and cook the edges until brown.
- Add the leeks and 2 tablespoons of the butter and saute until the leeks are soft, about 4 minutes; add the tarragon. Turn the heat to high and add the red wine. Let the sauce reduce by half, lower the heat to simmer and add the truffle oil.
- Place another saute pan on high heat. Spread the remaining 2 teaspoons butter onto the brioche halves and place in the pan until slightly browned, about 2 minutes.
- To serve, slice the filet mignon on the bias and place some slices onto one half of each brioche bun. Top with some sauce, leeks and the other half of each bun. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality filet mignon steaks. Look for steaks that are at least 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that your sandwiches are tender and flavorful.
- Cook the steaks to your desired doneness. Filet mignon is a relatively lean cut of meat, so it is important to not overcook it. For a medium-rare steak, cook it for about 3-4 minutes per side. For a medium steak, cook it for about 4-5 minutes per side. For a medium-well steak, cook it for about 5-6 minutes per side.
- Use a good quality bun. The bun is an important part of any sandwich, so don't skimp on it. Look for a bun that is soft and fluffy, but also sturdy enough to hold up to the fillings.
- Add your favorite toppings. There are endless possibilities when it comes to toppings for filet mignon sandwiches. Some popular choices include sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions, roasted red peppers, and blue cheese. Get creative and experiment until you find a combination that you love.
Conclusion:
Filet mignon sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sandwich that is sure to impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give filet mignon sandwiches a try. You won't be disappointed.
