How long and at what heat do I grill beef tenderloin about 1.25 inches thick.?

Question

i do have a meat thermometer which i often use for chicken, but i suck at grilling beef. Any tips are appreciated.

Answer 1

Use your meat thermometer and take the steak off the grill once it hits 120F-Rare, 125F-Med-Rare, 130 for Med. 140-Well Done.  

Med. Rare is usually the most popular temperature to serve beef.  It should take about 3-4 min. per side.  

It's good that you mastered cooking chicken already, most people usually struggle w/ Chicken.  

Also, cover the steak with foil and let is rest on a warm plate for at least 5 min.  It helps the juices redistribute from the middle and the internal temp. will go up another 5 degrees during this time.  

Check your therm.'s accuracy by testing it in a cup of ice water.  I forget what the temp should be (something like 22 degrees F)

Also, if your hand is burning over the grill, have a little bucket of water to dunk your hand in and you'll be able to keep your hand over the grill for longer.
