  • Filet mignon, French for "cute fillet" or "dainty fillet," is French for "dainty fillet"
  • Filet de boeuf, in French, may refer to beef fillet in French
  • Filet mignon may also be described as pork rather than beef on a French menu, rather than beef

Since the filet mignon is made from the most tender portion of the tenderloin, it's one of the most prized cuts of beef. Hence, you can expect this steak to be the most expensive.

Filet mignon is typically cut into 1 inch to 2 inch thick strips, grilled, and then served as is. Filet mignon is already cut into bacon-wrapped portions when it is discovered in grocery stores. The filet mignon's most popular method for preparing the filet mignon is to cook it on high heat, whether grilling, pan-frying, broiling, or roasting. The fillets can be served in a cognac cream sauce, au Poivre with peppercorns, or in a red wine reduction.

Bacon is often used in cooking due to the low fat content in the fillets. The bacon is wrapped around the fillet and tied shut with a wooden toothpick. The bacon gives the fillet a richer taste, and this method prevents the fillet from drying out during the cooking process.
