Materials

2 tsp salt
2 tsp black pepper
4 cloves of minced garlic (or 1 tsp garlic powder)
6 tbsp butter (softened, adjust to your preference)
4 filet mignon steaks

Instructions

In a bowl, combine all the ingredients besides the steaks themselves until well mixed.
On a chopping board, lay out your filet mignon steaks and rub or brush some of the mixture onto the top of the steaks.
Flip the steaks and rub or brush the mixture onto the other side.
Let the steaks sit for 5-15 minutes.
When your grill is at 450° F, lift the lid and place the steaks directly on the grill grates.
Cook for 3-8 minutes on each side depending on your preferred doneness (see the guide below).
When the internal temperature of the steaks reaches 135° F, they’re done, so cook to your desired doneness if beyond this and then remove.
Remove from the grill and let the steaks rest for 8-10 minutes so the flavors settle in the meat, and then serve!
