Decide whether to cook your filet primarily over high heat or low heat. There are pretty much two camps when it comes to how to cook meat: the high heat camp and the low heat camp. The high heat camp is straightforward: Cook the filet for 2-5 minutes per side over high heat, searing it to seal in the juices. While this method can certainly produce a fine filet mignon, the searing to seal in the juices idea has been debunked.
Roast the filet of beef for 1Â¼ to 1Â½ hours, until the temperature registers 125 degrees in the center for rare and 135 degrees for medium rare. I place the thermometer horizontally through the end of the beef. Cover the filet with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 20 minutes.
