I have purchase tenderloin before, but this tenderloin was awful. This tenderloin was very hard to cut up and I threw away a lot due to fat and inedible meat due to gristle.

Unfortunately for such an expesive cut of the meat the quality was very low. Flavorless despite dry bine and garlic butter. The texture was mushy and almost slightly rotten but eaten right after purchase and within date.

Normally my experience with Sams premium meat purchases have exceeded my expectations. This time it seems off, a large vein of gristle and an abundance of fat for a beef tenderloin. Rather disapointing.

Great taste as usual. Way too much fat. Almost a third of the weight was cut off and wasted. Will go to a local butcher next time and pay the higher cost for leaner product.

Bought and prepared for family Christmas dinner using garlic and thyme rub. It was delicious! So tender Everyone enjoyed it and wanted recipe.

IT WAS SO CHEWERY WE COULDN'T EAT IT . THEY LEFT THE BACK SHAP ON IT . I STILL HAVE IT PACKAGE UP , I WAS GOING TO BRING IT BACK $158.00 FOR CHRISTMAS EVE DINNER . AND WE EAT HAM INSTEAD . IT WAS A WASTE OF $158.00 & I WAS IN THE RESTAURANT BIZ FOR 30 PUS YRS .

We ordered online and picked up at the store. I was a little nervous about not picking the meat out myself, but it was perfect! We used our Traeger grill to cook it and it was wonderfully delicious. Everyone, including those who don’t usually eat beef, loved it!

Amateurishly butchered. Lots of bad cuts and hacks that made trimming more difficult than it needed to be. about a pound of fat and silver skin and another pound of “stew meat” leaving just over two pounds of tenderloin. Still works out to be less per pound than a trimmed tenderloin if you include the stew meat and don’t count your work time in the calculation. TLDR: If you don’t know how to peel and trim a tenderloin, walk past this. If you DO know how to peel and trim a tenderloin, but aren’t adept at working with poorly-butchered cuts of meat, you may STILL want to walk past this. Otherwise: this meat’s for you!

The trimmed tenderloin has become our go-to at Thanksgiving and Christmas. It's incredibly easy to prepare and cook (about 3 hours on the smoker @ 225), and there are plenty of online recipes and videos for preparing it. It's not cheap, but it's fantastic for a special occasion.

Nice cut of meat, requires trimming. Expect a loss of a pound or so to that. Other trimmings are good for recipes requiring tender cuts of beef. Don’t buy unless you’re comfortable trimming this yourself. Price has really gone up, like most things lately.
