-------- ------------ --------------------------------
12 ounces Cacique brand Menonita cheese
6 8 oz. beef tenderloin steaks
3 tablespoons butter
Cacique brand Cotija cheese
cilantro -- chopped
***Chipotle Sauce***
3 medium onions -- sliced 1/2" thick
3 tablespoons garlic -- minced
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 cups cilantro -- chopped
15 Roma tomatoes
3 limes -- juice of
5 Chipotle chilies in adobo -- canned
salt and pepper -- to taste

Grill the tenderloins over a white ash fire, to desired doneness. For best resu
lts the BBQ should be covered or closed, to act as an oven. Heat the sauce thro
ugh and whisk in the butter. Melt the Menonita cheese. Place meat on serving tr
ay and pour cheese over the top of the meat. Sprinkle with Cotija, and garnish
with the cilantro.

Chipotle Sauce:
Toss the tomatoes in vegetable oil and preferably grill the onions, and the tom
atoes, over Mesquite coals. The tomatoes should have blistered skins (if not gr
illing, blister tomatoes skins in a very hot skillet and then add the onions wi
th some vegetable oil to a hot sauce pan). Add garlic and continue to cook for
about 2 minutes. Add the oregano, cilantro, and the chilies, which have been ri
nsed and cleaned of their veins, and seeds and cook slowly, covered, for about
20 minutes. Let cool and then puree in the blender, adding the lime juice and s
alt and pepper to taste. For spicier sauce, add some of the adobo from the cann
ed chilies.
