Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tbsp finely grated gingerroot
1/4 cup dark rum
1 cup dark molasses
3 cups freshly squeezed orange juice
3 tbsp cracked black pepper
kosher salt , to taste
2 (2 lb) pieces of beef filet
olive oil for brushing the meat
kosher salt , to taste
molasses glaze

Directions:

MOLASSES GLAZE:
Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium-high until almost smoking, and cook the onion until soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and gingerroot and cook an additional 2 minutes. Add the rum and reduce until completely dry. Add the molasses, orange juice, and pepper, season with salt, and cook until reduced to 1 cup, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool at room temperature. May be refrigerated, covered, for 1 day; use at room temperature. Makes about 1 cup.
FOR THE FILETS MIGNON:
Preheat a gas or charcoal grill to medium. Brush the meat with olive oil and season with salt. Grill until well seared on ones side, 4 minutes, turn over, and baste with the Molasses Glaze. Continue grilling for 3 minutes, turn over, baste and grill for 2 to 3 minutes more (a total of 10 minutes), for medium rare. Let rest for 10 minutes; then slice into 8 steaks.
