What's so special about the Filet Mignon? Filet mignon is French, of course, with filet meaning "thick slice" and mignon meaning "dainty." It first appears in American print in 1899. Filet mignon comes from the small end of the tenderloin (called the short loin). The tenderloin term (also called chateaubriand) applies to the entire strip of tenderloin meat, whereas slices of the tenderloin are termed filet mignon. Filet mignon slices found in the market are generally one to two inches thick and two to three inches in diameter.
Each filet is individually wrapped with high quality commercial grade Cryovac® protective packaging, which guarantees them to stay fresh for up to one year!
