Original Recipe | Bon Appetit

Do Ahead: Tenderloin can be seasoned and chilled 2 days ahead; wrap in plastic wrap after 12 hours. Horseradish yogurt can be made 1 day ahead; cover and chill.

Step 1

Thinly slice garlic, then mash into a paste using the side of a chef’s knife. Scatter rosemary leaves over garlic; finely chop and mix into garlic. Slice tenderloin in half crosswise to create 2 smaller roasts. Season generously with salt and pepper; rub with garlic-rosemary paste. If your butcher didn’t already tie the roast for you, this is the time to do it: Place tenderloin onto lengths of precut kitchen twine spaced about 1″ apart and tie closed snugly. Place on a rimmed baking sheet and chill uncovered 12 hours.

Step 2

Let tenderloin sit at room temperature at least 1 hour and up to 2 hours before cooking.

 

 

Step 3

Preheat oven to 250°. Heat oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high. Add tenderloin and cook, turning occasionally, until well browned all over, 8–10 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven and roast tenderloin, turning every 10 minutes or so, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 120°, 25–30 minutes. Transfer tenderloin to a cutting board and let rest 15 minutes before removing kitchen twine and slicing. Reserve skillet.

Step 4

Meanwhile, mix yogurt, sour cream, horseradish, and lemon zest in a small bowl to combine; season with salt and pepper.

Step 5

Cook butter and rosemary sprigs in reserved skillet over medium heat, scraping up browned bits on the bottom, until butter is melted and very fragrant, about 4 minutes. Transfer sliced tenderloin to a platter; drizzle with rosemary-infused butter and sprinkle with sea salt. Serve with horseradish yogurt.

Small. Local. Ethical.

Ten Mile West Cattle Company is a family owned and operated cattle company located in Oakdale, CA with pastures throughout Sonoma County in Northern California and Reno Nevada. Ten Mile West runs multiple herds of Angus cross bred cows and calves on several leased acres of mostly upland pasture.

The health of our natural resources is critical to the success of our operation.  Hence, our commitment to pasture management for regenerative and sustainable purposes. We currently have several pastures that our cattle are rotated through on 15-30 day cycles. Our pastures are grazed once per growing season, with pastures receiving as much as  6-12 months of recovery between grazing events.

This practice of pasture management ensures the sustainability of our farms and ultimately our ecosystem.

Cattle Grazing
Holistic Farm Management

We consider the four ecosystem processes of water cycle, energy flow, community, and mineral cycle in every decision we make. 

Momma Cow and Her Calf

Connecting everything because everything is connected.

There are no individual stand-alone elements in nature; everything is entwined and if you remove or change the behaviour of any one of the key processes it will have a wide-ranging effect on other parts of the ecosystem.

Small farms are intrisically aware of the importance of the balance of the elements and agriculture. We are also sensitive to the balance between our businesses and the communities in which we reside.

Our appreciation for a sustainable means of farming is reflected in the basic understanding of the four ecosystem processes. At Ten Mile West Cattle Compay, we proudly honor each process through technology and time tested and proven farming strategies.

water cycle

Influence the process through irrigation and pasture management, keeping soil mineral rich and penetrable.

^

energy flow

Increase the amount of energy flow to a property is by planting more solar-converting plants and increasing external input of fossil fuels through organic fertilizer.

^

community

From the billions of microbes in the soil, to the insects, small animals, plants and our introduced farm animals; they all work together to make the other processes happen.

^

mineral cycle

A biologically active living soil, with adequate aeration and energy underground to sustain an abundance of organisms.

More than a mere alternative strategy, regenerative agriculture represents a fundamental shift in our culture’s relationship to nature.

Tips for Grilling the Perfect Steak

Tips for Grilling the Perfect Steak

by | Jun 21, 2022 | Recipes

Authored by: David Rose, Omaha Steaks Executive Chef

Providing quality grassfed and grain finished beef to our consumers is our highest priority. Offering savory recipes and useful tips to best prepare our quality beef products is an equally high priority. We found the following article from Chef David Rose to be an extremely useful resource regarding grilling tips for the perfect steak experience.

Choose the Best Quality Beef

Not all steaks are created equal. For best grilling results, start with premium-quality steaks. Here’s why our beef is better:

Maximum Tenderness
Steaks should be aged at least 28 days, a careful process that creates the most tender steak possible. Then…they’re flash frozen and vacuum-sealed to stay that way.

Intense Flavor
The best grain-finished beef – hand selected for quality and marbling – the aging process and flash freezing will guarantee great beef flavor. 

True Safety
Quality beef products are handled in the cleanest, safest conditions anywhere, and we stand by our work.

Flash Frozen and Vacum Sealed
Freezing beef at home will damage its integrity and make it less juicy. However, flash freezing at processing and vacum sealing is proven to preserve the flavor and texture of your steak perfectly…until the moment you’re ready to cook it.

Consistency
Purchase from cattle companies utilizing master butchers who cut steaks…and that’s all they do. The individual attention means less exterior fat, zero imperfections, and guaranteed steak quality.

Five Steps to a Great Steak

If you’re ever lucky enough to eat one of Chef David Rose’s steaks, you’ll understand why it is all about the quality beef. But, as he’ll tell you, grilling great steaks isn’t rocket science. Follow Chef Rose’s “Five Steps to Grilling Great Steak” for steakhouse-worthy results at home.

1. Proper Preparation
Clean and pre-heat your grill on high. Make sure to oil the grill grates after cleaning. Prepare your steaks by patting them dry and seasoning before grilling. Use sea salt and freshly cracked pepper or a complete steak seasoning or rub. Wash your hands after seasoning the raw steaks. Then, determine your desired doneness before placing the steaks on the grill. (Steak Cooking Chart)

2. Searing
Sear the outside of your steaks over high heat and avoid moving them before they are ready. The steaks will release from the grate once the crust has developed. This helps with the flavor, texture and juiciness of the steaks. When handling steaks on the grill, use tongs or a spatula to turn your meat on the grill, as poking with a fork can damage the meat. Always wash utensils used on raw meat before touching cooked meat, or keep separate utensils for your cooked steaks.

3. Controlling Your Cook
Close your grill cover as much as possible while cooking to maintain a temperature around 450°F. This helps lock in flavor and prevent flare-ups. For timing, use the 60/40 grilling method. Grill for 60% of the time on the first side, then grill for 40% of the time after you turn over the steaks. This will give you an evenly cooked steak (Steak Cooking Chart).

4. Rest
After grilling, place your finished steaks on a clean plate. Never put cooked steaks on the plate you used to bring raw steaks to the grill without thoroughly washing it first. Allow your steaks to rest for at least 3 to 5 minutes. This will help the juices redistribute for the best-tasting and juiciest steaks. Garnish your steaks and serve with style…a little effort goes a long way. Add colors, textures, and flavors to make your perfectly grilled steak even more memorable.

5. Eat, order more 10 Mile West Steaks, and repeat!

The Benefits of Grassfed and Grain Finished Beef

Jesse and Adam

Written by

In today’s health conscious times, consumers are seeking healthier protein for feeding their families. Grassfed beef has become the rage as it contains more healthy fats and can provide and is higher in antioxidants and other key nutrients that are good for overall health. At Ten Mile west Cattle Company, we grass feed and grain finish our cattle.

Northern California Cattle
Grssfed and Grain finished beef

Locally sourced from responsible farms and ranches throughout California and nevada.

Our cattle are raised in open pastures where they are free to graze. We graze them on nutritious pastures that we rotate for regenerative purposes. By frequently rotating our herds through sectioned parcels, we are allowing the pastures enough time to rest and grow before the animals come back and graze it again. This process allows the grass to remain truly healthy, avoiding the stress of overgrazing. The grass develops deep roots that allow the plant access to a wider field of nutrients, making the grass more nutritious for the cattle. This nutrition is passed onto our consumers. The deep roots also make the grass more drought resistant, allowing for healthy grazing even in times of diminished rainfall.

Why Grain Finish?

We start our cattle on a grassfed diet and then introduce them to a custom, all natural grain diet to get that steakhouse quality taste and a rich flavor that our customers have come to love.

Quality Meats at Great Prices

Costs are reduced and the savings is passed on to the consumer. Saturated fats are also reduced thus decreasing the risk of heart disease.

Hormone Free

Eating grass-fed meat greatly reduces the risk of food poisoning when compared to only grain-fed beef.

Is Grassfed better?

Grassfed and grass-finished beef cattle eat only forage until they reach market weight. This process can generally take three times longer to finish cattle on grass than on grain, add the cost of grass-finished beef, and the additional strain to the environment, 100% grassfed is not always the ideal 

Grass-fed beef can be difficult to produce year-round, due to changing seasons and weather conditions. 

finally, a completely plant-based diet, yields a beef that is leaner than grain-finished beef, thus resulting in a “gamey” flavor—which some cosumers are not accustomed. 

Cattle Grazing

In summary, beef is an excellent source of zinc, iron, protein, and B vitamins – it just fcooks and tastes better when it’s grain finished. 

At 10 Mile West Cattle Company we are committed to creating a more sustainable food system by empowering local and small farms, practicing land conservation, and restoring the vitality of the California foodshed.

Our experience in pasture management, producing nutritious beef while improving the environment and supporting our local economy, is the foundation we have built our catte company. Visit our SHOP and learn more about our sustainably grassfed and grain finished beef.
