Dry-Aged Filet Mignon vs. Fresh-Cut Filet
While fresh-cut filet is prized for pure tenderness, dry-aged Prime Filet Mignon adds layers of savory depth and refined beef flavor without sacrificing texture. Dry aging concentrates the meat’s natural character, creating a more complex and memorable filet. Prefer a brighter, ultra-clean profile? Explore USDA Choice Filet Mignon.
How to Cook (3 Proven Methods)
Target doneness: Rare to medium-rare. Filet is lean, and dry-aged beef benefits from gentle heat and precise temperature control. Use a fast, accurate thermometer and rest before slicing. See our Steak Temperature Chart.
1) Cast-Iron Sear + Oven Finish (classic)
- Sear in a ripping-hot cast-iron skillet 1½–2 minutes per side.
- Finish in a 300–325°F oven to target temperature.
- Rest 6–8 minutes before serving.
2) Reverse-Sear (maximum control)
- Cook gently at 225–250°F until ~10°F below target.
- Sear briefly over high heat for crust.
- Dial in timing with our Sous Vide & Reverse-Sear Calculator.
3) Two-Zone Grill
- Sear quickly over the hot zone.
- Finish over indirect heat to protect the lean center.
