Best Blackstone Filet Mignon Recipe:

Cooking filet on Blackstone is one my favorite ways to cook my favorite cut of meat. I usually get a Filet Mignon when I go to a steak house, but since getting a Blackstone I have been able to cook it perfectly on the griddle.

This restaurant quality meat cooks easily on the griddle surface and the steak comes out tender and juicy. We love the large cooking space so I can cook multiple things at once. The high heat cooks the filet mignon quickly and which locks in the moisture.

Simple seasoning are added to the filet mignon to enhance the flavor. Add your favorite side dishes and you have a complete meal.

How to Know when Steak is done:

The best way to test for doneness is by inserting an instant read thermometer into the thickest part of the steak. Do this through the side, not the top of the steak.

Steak Doneness:

  • Rare – 120F, cool to warm red center
  • Medium Rare – 130F, Warm red center
  • Medium – 140F, Hot pink center
  • Well Medium – 150F, Mostly brown center
  • Well Done – 160F, full brown in color

How to Cook Filet Mignon on Stove Top:

Cooking a Filet Mignon is an easy way to cook your favorite cut of meat. We recommend to cook in a hot skillet. We like to use a cast iron skillet but any skillet will work. Cooking in a cast iron skillet is similar to cook on a Blackstone Griddle or a Gas Grill.

We still recommend pan searing the steak in skillet over high heat and cooking all sides. Then turn the stove top to low heat and continue cooking until the temperature you prefer.

Blackstone Filet Mignon Tips:

  • Rest Steaks – Once the steak is cook, allow them to rest before cutting into it. This helps to lock in the juice giving the steaks so much flavor.

  • Caramelized Onions –Grilled onionsare great on steaks as they add so much flavor.
  • Sauteed Mushrooms –Most of my family loves mushrooms, and they are perfect topped with this Blackstone Steak.
