Try Menard's if you have one close by. Sometimes you can get them and Lowe's
into a bidding war. Plus Menard's has an 11% mail-in rebate on everything you
buy. For a few $$$ purchase it's not worth the hassle/stamp. But for a major
buy ..... oh, yeah. Here the northside Menard's and Lowe's are located across
the street from each other. On the south end they are more separated but still
pretty close.

I think the Hotpoint was GE's "value" brand ... like
"Estate" is to Whirlpool.

      Yield: 6 Servings
 
      2 ts + 1 tb olive oil; divided
      2 lb Beef tenderloin
      1 ts Kosher salt
    1/2 ts Black pepper
    1/2 ts Dried thyme
      1 ts Dried rosemary
    1/2 ts Fennel seed
      1 ts Garlic powder

MMMMM----------------------ROASTED TOMATOES---------------------------
      9    Plum tomatoes
      2 tb Olive oil
      2 cl Garlic; minced
      1 tb Chopped fresh basil
      1 tb Chopped fresh oregano
           Salt & pepper
    1/2 c  Shredded Asiago cheese
 
  Preheat oven to 350øF/175øC. (Or plan to roast alongside
  beef.)
  
  Cut tomatoes crosswise in half and toss with olive oil,
  garlic, herbs and salt and pepper until evenly coated.
  Place tomatoes in muffin pan(s), cut sides up.
  
  Roast at 350øF/175øC 20 minutes.
  
  Top with Asiago cheese. Serve hot from the oven or at room
  temperature.
  
  FOR THE TENDERLOIN: Preheat oven to 350øF/175øC.
  
  Add 2 teaspoons oil to hot skillet and sear beef
  tenderloin on each side over high heat until a brown crust
  develops.
  
  In small bowl, make a paste of the salt, pepper, herbs,
  garlic powder and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Rub
  over surface of seared tenderloin.
  
  Meanwhile, prepare tomatoes for roasting.
  
  Place tenderloin on roasting rack over a shallow roasting
  pan in preheated oven. Roast about 30 minutes; or to
  desired level of doneness. (Place tomatoes in oven 10
  minutes before beef will be done and leave in during
  resting time.)
  
  If serving tenderloin hot, let rest 20 minutes before
  slicing. If serving cold, let cool completely before
  slicing.

  arrange on a platter with cooled roasted tomatoes, shaved
  red onions, assorted olives, crumbled bleu cheese, roasted
  red peppers, pickled vegetables such as okra and beans,
  cherry peppers and banana peppers.
