Ingredients

6 filet mignon steaks

Dry Rub:

1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon mustard powder
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon brown sugar
4 tablespoons ground paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
freshly ground black pepper to taste
salt to taste

Creamy Blue Cheese Sauce:

4 ounces blue cheese crumbled
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2/3 cup sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

Let the filets rest out of the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes prior to grilling (helps keep the meat tender. If you apply heat to chilled meat it shocks it & causes it to toughen up).
In the meantime, mix together all the dry rub ingredients. It will make more than you need and you can save the extra mix in the pantry.
When the filets are brought to room temperature, rub the spice mixture generously onto each piece.
Grill over medium heat to desired doneness (again, PLEASE do not overcook, it will taste best with a pink center).
In a saucepan over low heat, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir until smooth and warm. Remove from heat and stir in the blue cheese crumbles. Serve over your filet mignon or on the side for dipping.

Notes

How to Store Filet Mignon

Storing meat is simple, but does take extra time to prepare. You will want the juices to stay within the meat. Place the meat in an aluminum shield wrapped around the meat. Then place in an air-tight container or ziplock bag. This will stop any juices from flowing out while sitting in the refrigerator. Store for three to five days before the beef goes bad.
