Chteaubriand
[sha-toh-bree-AHN]
Contrary to popular belief, Chteaubriand is actually a recipe, not a
cut of beef. This method of preparation is said to be named for the
19th-century French statesman and author, François Chteaubriand. It's
a succulent, thick cut of beef (usually taken from the center of the
tenderloin) that's large enough for two people.
