Bleu Cheese Beef Tenderloin

Total Time: 1 hr 30 mins Preparation Time: 45 mins Cook Time: 45 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 8
• 3 -4 lbs beef tenderloin
• 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
• 1/2 cup red wine
• 4 cloves garlic (chopped or minced)
• 4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 2/3 cup sour cream
• 1 1/2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce

Recipe

• 1 place beef in a shallow dish.
• 2 combine, teriyaki sauce, red wine& garlic.
• 3 pour mixture over beef and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes turning at least once.
• 4 place tenderloin on broiler pan and cook in preheated oven at 450 degrees for 15 minutes.
• 5 reduce heat to 375 degrees and cook for 30 to 40 minutes longer (or to desired doneness... i like mid-rare so i do 20 minutes depending on the thickness of the cut).
• 6 allow to set for appx 10 minutes before slicing keeping in mind it will continue to cook as it sets.
• 7 in a saucepan over low heat, combine the bleu cheese, mayo, sour cream and worcestershire sauce.
• 8 stir until smooth and creamy and serve over the sliced tenderloin.
• 9 when i made this, i saved the marinade, minced some garlic and added a little more of each ingredient (especially the garlic).
• 10 i then put it in a saucepan with a sprig of rosemary and small red potatoes and let them simmer while the meal cooked.
• 11 as always, garlic and bleu cheese can be overpowering for some (not me mind you... never have enough*lol) but you can indeed adjust these to taste.
