    I had a pork tenderloin in the freezer and decided to use it to make my birthday dinner, but I had no idea how to best prepare it. I came to this site, as I always do, when I need ideas. The Food Network ALWAYS comes through!
    I prepared the pork tenderloin as instructed in the beef tenderloin recipe, only I cooked it until it was 160'F on my meat thermometer. I let the meat "rest" while I finished the ragout.
    I used white wine ("Old Fart" and "1/2 and 1/2" instead of heavy cream. My husband and I both loved the entree. The kids ate the tenderloin, but passed on the ragout. I served it with a pasta dish, "Farfalle with Broccoli, Broccoli-Butter Sauce" from Rozanne Gold's "Recipes 1-2-3". Next time, I might serve it with roasted potatoes, onions and peppers. I forgot to make the salad!
    I'll have to seriously consider doubling this recipe and trying out adding other spices, both suggested here by other reviewers. I think there were only 6 slices left out of a 2.47 lb. tenderloin! I am also going to print the ragout section of the recipe specifically to put in a separate section of my recipe box, because it should definitely be enjoyed with other dishes, too!

    I followed the directions exactly for the beef tenderloin but overcooked a bit. I did use a red wine in the mushroom ragout--I didn't care for it but the guys in my house really liked it.

    This recipe was so easy and so good. I served it with mashed potatoes and we loved it. I would not be afraid to serve this to company nor would I hesitate to splurge on the cut of meat if you are able...

    Made this for Thanksgiving instead of the traditional turkey and my family loved it! The mushrooms were the favorite part of the recipe. Will make it again, and again!

    I made this for my husband and I for our anniversary as a special dinner. This is the only way I ever want to have roast beef again! I usually make an eye round roast beef, but the whole beef tenderloin is not that much more expensive, but so much better. I made ours with oven roasted diced potatoes also, which I roasted in a separate pan right next to the beef. We also had salad with our meal. We felt like we were on a cruise! I also made a chocolate souffle for dessert to complete the meal. Highly recommended, easy to make and well worth it!

    This recipe is outstanding. I have never made tenderloin before, so I was hesitant, especially given the cost. This recipe was so easy, it really is almost impossible to mess up. I make it for every holiday or special occasion. It's always a hit with guests.

    I put thyme, garlic, rosemary, sea salt and black pepper on the tenderloin before I seared it for extra flavor. The sauce was very good. I used Marsala wine and added a little bit of brown sugar at the end. It was great with the tenderloin.

    This recipe is EXCELLENT! The beef was tender and juicy, and the sauce was very flavorful and just made the dish. I ended up getting a 3 1/2 pound roast for 6 people, instead of the 2 pound roast that was suggested. 2 pounds wouldn't have been enough. I also flavored the beef with Herbes de Provence as suggested, and served roasted potatoes with rosemary and green beans with tarragon along with it. I got rave reviews. My guests are still talking about the great meal! I will definitely make this again.
