Roasted Beef Tenderloin

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 500*F. Pat meat dry before searing it. Rub the tenderloin all over with the cut garlic, then rub liberally all over with pepper. Place meat in a roasting pan, insert a meat thermometer into its heart and place in the oven. Immediately turn heat down to 225*F. Start checking temperature on thermometer after 50 to 60 minutes for normal-sized tenderloin. Thermometer should read 120*F for rare meat. When done, remove from oven and let stand for 15 to 20 minutes before carving (do not tent with foil).
