Chef Marcus Samuelsson joins Matt Lauer on TODAY (@todayshow) to show us how to make a roasted beef tenderloin and grilled artichoke salad. Chef Marcus, born in Ethiopia and raised in Switzerland, defines his culinary style as American cooking with an ethnic twist. His new cookbook, New American Table, is described as “a love-letter to America”. I’ll just say this, I’m a vegetarian but that beef tenderloin he’s making looks so good, I would seriously consider putting on a carnevor cap temporarily to get a bite of that – looks delicious!
