Product Title: Elk Tenderloin (Avg. 1.0 lb) Price: $45/lb
The Filet Mignon of the Wild Sourced from the deep wilderness, the Elk Tenderloin is widely considered the "Crown Jewel" of game meats. It offers the lean, melt-in-your-mouth texture of a beef filet but with a distinct, clean sweetness found only in wild game. If you have been hesitant about venison being "gamey," this cut will change your mind—it is incredibly mild, sophisticated, and packed with nutrient-dense protein.
Why We Love It:
-
Unrivaled Tenderness: Harvested from the most sedentary muscle, making it soft enough to cut with a butter knife.
-
Nutrient Powerhouse: Extremely low in fat and cholesterol, yet higher in iron and protein than beef.
-
Mild Profile: A subtle, earthy flavor that pairs beautifully with berry reductions or savory herbs, without overpowering the palate.
Cooking Recommendation: Treat it like precious cargo. Because Elk is so lean, it cooks faster than beef. Sear in a hot cast-iron skillet with butter or tallow for just 2–3 minutes per side. Pull it at 125°F (Rare) or 130°F (Medium-Rare) and let it rest for 10 minutes. Do not cook past Medium-Rare.
