Category: Beef I - Roasts, Tenderloins, Misc
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1 whole head of garlic
3 tbsp plus 1 tsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 beef tenderloin, 3 1/2 to 4 lbs
3 tbsp whole pink peppercorns
2 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary
2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper

To make the paste: Remove the loose, papery outer skin from the head of garlic. Cut about 1/2 inch off the top to expose the cloves. Place the garlic head on an 8-inch square of aluminum foil and drizzle 1 tsp of the olive oil over the cloves. Fold up the foil sides and seal to make a packet, leaving a little room for the expansion of steam. Grill over Indirect Medium heat until the cloves are soft, 30 to 45 minutes. Remove from the grill and allow to cool. Squeeze the garlic from the individual cloves into a small bowl. Add the remaining 3 tbsp of olive oil and mash the garlic and oil together with a fork to form a paste.

Trim the tenderloin of any excess fat and silver skin. Spread the paste on the tenderloin, rubbing it into the meat.

In a small bowl combine the peppercorns, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Mix well and press into the paste on the top and sides of the tenderloin.

Allow the tenderloin to stand at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before grilling. Grill over Indirect Medium heat until the internal temperature reaches 135 degrees for medium rare, 30 to 40 minutes.

Remove from the grill and allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes. The temperature will rise 5 degrees to 10 degrees during this time. Cut into 3/4- to 1-inch slices and serve warm. Serves 8 to 10
