Let’s Get Cooking 

Wrap the Filets

First, carefully wrap one whole slice of bacon around each filet and pin it with a toothpick, string, or a grilling pin. Lather your steaks with oil and season with my Bourbon Prime Seasoning . Then, place the steaks in the fridge for 40 minutes to dry brine.

Pro Tip: Pull the steaks out of the refrigerator 15 minutes before cooking to come to room temperature. This will help you achieve a better crust on the steak while cooking it.

Start Grilling Bacon Wrapped Filets

Preheat your grill to medium heat temperature (around 375F) for direct cooking. Add your steak to the grill to cook for 3-3.5 minutes per side or until 120F internal.

Make sure to sear off the bacon because we want it to get nice and crispy. Once the steaks are done, pull them off and let them rest for 10 minutes.

Make the Mushroom Cream Sauce

Reset your grill for direct cooking at 375F. Add a large skillet and then add some canola oil into that skillet. Add your sliced mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown, then pull off once cooked.

Next, add your beef broth, steak sauce, champagne vinegar, dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Let that simmer until reduced by half (about 10 minutes), stirring frequently. 

Finally, add your heavy cream and grated parmesan. Let it simmer until the sauce thickens (about 2-3 minutes) over a low simmer. Finally, add your mushrooms back in and stir until well incorporated. Once done, pull off the heat and keep warm.

Serve

Top your steaks with the Mushroom Cream Sauce, garnish with chopped parsley, slice and enjoy!

How to Serve Bacon Wrapped Filets 

Bacon rapped Filets with Mushroom Cream Sauce make for a delicious and indulgent main course. To complete the meal, consider serving it with a variety of sides that will complement the rich flavors of the filets and sauce. Some options include roasted vegetables, such as asparagus or broccoli, or a simple green salad with a tangy vinaigrette. Mashed potatoes or creamy polenta would also be tasty accompaniments. You could also try a loaf of crusty bread for dipping into the mushroom cream sauce. 

Storing Bacon Wrapped Filets with Mushroom Cream Sauce

Your Bacon Wrapped Filets with Mushroom Cream Sauce need to be stored properly to remain tasty and nutritious. If you have any leftovers, let the filets cool fully before putting them in the fridge in an airtight container. In the refrigerator, they can last up to 3 or 4 days. 

For extended storage, you might also freeze the filets. To accomplish this, wrap the filets firmly in plastic or aluminum foil before putting them in a freezer-safe bag or container. The bag or container should be marked with the date and placed in the freezer for up to three months.

Reheating/Leftovers 

The filets should be defrosted in the refrigerator overnight before being heated in the oven or on the stovetop when you’re ready to consume them. There are a few different ways to reheat leftover Bacon Wrapped Filets with Mushroom Cream Sauce, depending on your preference and available tools. Here are a few options:

Oven:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
2. Place the filets on a baking sheet and cover them with aluminum foil to help keep them moist.
3. Heat the filets in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until they are warm. 

Stovetop:

1. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Add a little bit of oil or butter to the pan, then place the filets in the skillet.
3. Cook them for 3-4 minutes on each side or until they are heated through.

Microwave: 

1. Place the filets on a microwave-safe plate and cover them with a damp paper towel. 
2. Heat the filets in the microwave on high for 1-2 minutes or until they are heated through.

Just be sure to check the internal temperature of the filets with a meat thermometer to ensure that they are fully cooked and safe to eat.
