Instructions
- Begin by preheating the smoker to medium-high heat (about 375F) for two zone cooking.
- Poke holes with a fork in your potatoes and wrap completely in foil.
- Add the potatoes to the cooler side of the grill to cook for 1-1.5 hours until tender and softened. Make sure to flip and rotate as needed.
- Once the potatoes are done, pull off and keep warm until serving.
- In a bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the Parmesan Herb Crust. Add your olive oil slowly and mix around until you have a nice texture (should be like wet sand).
- Lather your beef tenderloin with oil and generously season with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
- Add your tenderloin to sear over the high heat part of the grill for 1-1.5 minutes per side.
- Once you have some color and grill marks, pull the whole tenderloin to the cooler side to cook until 120F internal (about 15-20 minutes) making sure to flip and rotate the steak every 5-7 minutes.
- When the steak is about 100F internal, add your Parmesan Herb Crust to the top of the tenderloin and let cook over high heat until the crust is caramelized and the steak is done (if necessary, use your broiler or use a torch).
- Once the steak is done, pull it off and let it rest for 15 minutes.
- For serving, make your baked potato with melted butter, shredded cheese, sour cream and chopped chives.
- Slice up the beef tenderloin and enjoy!
