Yes, but a filet mignon (cooked properly) is oh-so-very tender...  :)

Alas 'tis too true, but the trade off is natural flavour.

Some folks LOVE filet (or veal) because it is so tender (as you say, cooked properly) ... but dental health has improved over the years and I likes me stuff thats tasty.

 ;D

Jdurg:
Yeah.  I always give my steaks the index-to-thumb test for doneness.  If I press the tip of my index finger to the tip of my thumb in an "okay" type of pose, then press on the mound at the base of my thumb, that's how my steak should feel when I press on it.  To me, that indicates the perfect level of doneness.  The toughest I'll ever let it get is how my middle finger to thumb "tenderness" feels.  Any tougher than that, and I'll just throw it away.

Now you're just wasting ... just wrap it in bacon!

A-1 is best used as a dip for a grilled cheese sandwich.  Now, I know, sounds weird, but don't knock it 'till you try it!   :cheers:
