Marinated Beef Tenderloin image

My three grown children and grandkids enjoy this tempting tenderloin. Leftovers make wonderful sandwiches with oven-fresh bread and Dijon mustard. I sometimes substitute a marinated eye of round roast...and it turns out fine.

APPLE ALE- AND WHISKEY-MARINATED BEEF TENDERLOIN



Apple Ale- and Whiskey-Marinated Beef Tenderloin image

This easy roast was a huge hit at Christmas dinner. The hands-on prep time is less than 10 minutes--it's the marinating that takes many hours. I've used wine-based marinades before and decided to try apple ale, which is a favorite at our house. We thought it tasted much better than with the wine marinades.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Roast Recipes

Time 19h15m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 (12 fluid ounce) bottles hard apple ale (such as Redd's(R))
¼ cup cinnamon whiskey
¼ cup brown sugar
20 whole cloves
2 teaspoons dried Valencia orange peel
1 (5 pound) beef tenderloin

Steps:

  • Combine ale and whiskey in a bowl. Add brown sugar, cloves, and orange peel.
  • Double over the skinny ends of the tenderloin and tie to the rest of the roast with kitchen string so it's roughly the same thickness from one end to the other. Place in a ceramic roasting or baking pan and pour ale marinade over top. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator, turning occasionally, for 18 to 24 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Coast a roasting pan with olive oil.
  • Remove tenderloin from the marinade and place in a roasting pan. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Roast in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue roasting until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 140 degrees F (60 degrees C), about 45 minutes.
  • Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality tenderloins: Look for tenderloins that are firm, evenly colored, and have a good amount of marbling (fat).
  • Marinate the tenderloins for at least 4 hours, or overnight: This will help to flavor the meat and make it more tender.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade should contain a combination of acids, oils, and spices. Some good options include:
    • Whiskey, soy sauce, honey, and garlic
    • Red wine, olive oil, thyme, and rosemary
    • Citrus juice, olive oil, cilantro, and cumin
  • Cook the tenderloins over medium heat: This will help to prevent the meat from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the tenderloins are cooked to your desired doneness: For medium-rare, the internal temperature should be 135 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the tenderloins rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving: This will help to keep the juices in the meat.

Conclusion:

Whiskey-marinated tenderloins are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can ensure that your tenderloins are cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. Serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted potatoes, grilled vegetables, or a simple salad. Enjoy your meal!
