This “So Buttery” Filet Mignon Is the Best I’ve Ever Tasted (I’m Ordering It for My Holiday Dinner)
As a Texas native, I’m an enormous fan of steak — so much so that if there was one dish I had to eat every day for the rest of my life, that would be it. Unfortunately, since moving to New York, I don’t eat it quite as often anymore. Due to a combination of budgeting and a busy schedule, I don’t usually keep cuts of steak stocked in my fridge, and I only ever make trips to a steakhouse for a special occasion. I’m aiming to rectify the situation this year, though, making a point to carve out some time to make at least a few steak dinners during the holidays.
Instead of schlepping it from the store, though, I’m planning on buying Rastelli’s Filet Mignon in bulk from QVC. After attending QVC’s Foodie Fest this past summer and trying the filet out for myself, I know that the online butcher shop provides steakhouse-quality cuts at amazing prices. In the case of the deal I just found, you’ll get 10 five-ounce filets for just $168. That works out to be under $20 for each meal, which is a steal for its high quality. Whether you’re treating yourself or planning a holiday gathering, here’s why you should take advantage of the sale price before it’s gone.
What is Rastelli’s Black Angus Reserve Filet Mignon?
As “America’s personal butcher,” Rastelli’s has been delivering premium meat and seafood to customers’ doorsteps for over five decades — and the brand’s experience shows in how stellar its filet mignon is. One pack comes with 10 tender, marbled cuts, all loaded with flavor. Once you click the buy button, the steaks will show up on your doorstep within two days of shipment, packaged with dry ice to keep them fresh. Best of all, preparing them couldn’t be easier. All you have to do is remove the steaks from their vacuum-sealed packaging, toss them on the grill, stove, or oven, then add the included garlic and herb butter and seasoning pack. After that, all that’s left to do is enjoy.
Why I Love Rastelli’s Filet Mignon
Alongside all of the other Foodie Fest attendees, I took part in a sit-down dinner (which you can read all about here) provided by Rastelli’s, and the main course was this steakhouse-quality filet mignon. It was the perfect end to a delicious day — the steak was totally lean, with every bite melting in my mouth. The size was perfect for an individual portion, too, as was the thickness. (Cuts from the grocery store often run on the thinner side, so Rastelli’s is a safer bet.)
One key ingredient that took these already-great steaks to the next level was the brand’s Signature Steak Sauce, which also happens to be on sale. It’s a mouth-watering blend of sweet and savory, and you can even pair it with other dishes and use it as a marinade. In addition to adding that to your cart, you should also consider opting into QVC’s auto-delivery plan, which ensures that a new shipment arrives every 60 days for a year. That way, once you try them out during your holiday get-togethers, you can make your dinners more special all year long. That sounds like an unbeatable deal to me, especially when each filet ends up being under $20!
