I have always struggled to make a great-tasting steak without firing up the grill. This technique results in a perfect filet every time, assuming you start with a good piece of meat.

This sounds fabulous. May give a try tonight. Got an order of Omaha Steaks in this morning. Don't have a grill anymore, so gotta try somethin' inside.

This does sound fabulous! The last time I attempted to make filets indoor was a disaster. I charred them beyond all recognition while cooking dinner for a new boyfriend. I think he forgave me though, because now he's my husband. I'll surprise him with these for Father's Day. Thanks for the post!
