Omaha Steaks
For Father’s Day, my husband received filet mignon steaks from Omaha Steaks. Luckily, the four of the steaks that I cooked last weekend were all different thicknesses. This allowed me to cook them all the same amount of time. Thick thickest, 2-inch steak, I served myself, and it was medium. I also had requests for medium-well and well. I’m sure you can see where I’m going with this. The thinner the steak, the more well-done it was. The 1-1/2-inch thick steak was medium-well and the 1-inch steak was well done.
Did you know?
Beef tenderloin is the name of the long cut of beef (almost a roast) before it is sliced into steaks. Once it is cut into steaks, they are called, “filet mignon.” Once in a while a butcher will label filet mignon as “beef tenderloin steaks”. They are the same as filet mignon.

As you become more familiar with cooking steaks, you’ll be able to push on the top of the steak to figure out how rare/uncooked the steaks still are. If it feels like a raw steak would feel, then it is rare. The steak firms up more and more, the longer it cooks.
You don’t want to cut into a steak to find out if it is done because all of the juices will pour out of the steak, leaving you with a less desirable steak.
