Filet Mignon Wallpapers

Filet mignon is a steak cut of beef taken from the smaller end of the tenderloin, or psoas major of the beef carcass, usually a steer or heifer.

In French this cut can also be called filet de bœuf, which translates in English to beef fillet.

When found on a menu in France, filet mignon generally refers to pork rather than beef.

The tenderloin (not to be confused with the short loin) runs along both sides of the spine, and is usually harvested as two long snake-shaped cuts of beef.
