Tenderloin Medallions (Filet)- Yaka Vieja

This is from our "Aged On The Hoof" Collection. These animals are harvested when they are older than the industry norm. Because they live peaceful, stress-free lives they are tender, but the extra age gives the meat extra flavor and richness.The tenderloin is most tender piece of meat you will ever have the pleasure of biting into. It is soft, juicy, and flavorful without needing anything more than a simple salt and pepper seasoning. These are medallions, about 2 inches thick. The different sizes are because of different animals.A yak tenderloin, known as an eye fillet in Australasia, filet in France, filé mignon in Brazil, and fillet in the United Kingdom and South Africa, is cut from the loin of yak. We carefully tend to and raise our animals only on the nutrient rich green grasses and crystal clear waters of our high mountain ranches outside Chama, NM. Nothing more, nothing less.
