Fillet of beef is otherwise known as tenderloin, a name which is pretty self-explanatory. It's a loin muscle, found beside the sirloin, and it's exceptionally tender. It has no superficial fat and negligible marbling so needs careful cooking to preserve it's delicate flavour. The long, tapering fillet is made up of three distinct parts – the butt, the centre cut and the tail – and is a versatile piece of meat that lends itself to lots of different treatments. Because it's a slightly awkward shape, it's often split into three parts for ease of use. The butt is the widest part of the cut and is perfect for carpacchio, the centre cut (including the chateaubriand) is even in shape and density so ideal for beef wellington, while the pointed tail can be cut into steaks or roasted as a mini joint.

It also guarantees it will arrive with you in tiptop condition - confidently delivering fresh meat would be much more challenging.

If you want a really magnificent centrepiece, a whole roast fillet is unbeatable. To cook it evenly can be tricky, though, so if you're planning to keep the tail on it's best to fold it under and secure it in place to prevent it cooking way more quickly than the rest of the joint. Sear in a very hot pan until all sides are browned, then roast for about 15 minutes. When the internal temperature is 50˚C the inside will be rare. Rest for 15 minutes wrapped in foil then slice thinly and serve with a punchy peppercorn sauce.

Will certainly be ordering again.

They were wonderful. Tender, tasty, the highlight of the meal. Because of lockdown the planned larger family meal had to be eaten as two meals in different households (so 2 smaller wellingtons rather than one big one), There was enough for 10 generous portions. We will certainly buy more

Worried at first as such an odd long thin shape. I am a non meat eater, however, when the joint was trussed and cooked it was acclaimed as superb! Worried at first as such an odd long thin shape. I am a non meat eater, however, when the joint was trussed and cooked it was acclaimed as superb!
