    Good recipe – except bring the tenderloin to room temperature before cooking; which means several hours sitting on the counter.

      Thank you Barbara for your comment and interest in our Beef Tenderloin Roast recipe! You make an excellent point about bringing the beef tenderloin to room temperature before cooking. This step is indeed important as it allows for more even cooking of the meat. Allowing the tenderloin to sit out on the counter for a few hours before cooking can make a significant difference in the outcome. We appreciate your input and will make a note of this in the recipe for other readers. Your feedback helps us improve and provide better culinary guidance. Thank you again for your suggestion and happy cooking!
