How to Make Homemade Beef Stock
If you want to learn how to make your beef stock at home, here’s a quick tutorial from a fellow YouTuber, Chef Jack Ovens. Alternatively, if you’d rather save some time, keep some high-quality grass-fed beef broth in your pantry staples.
How to Make Steak & Mushroom Sauce
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.
Pull the steaks out of the refrigerator 15 minutes before cooking to come to room temperature. This will help you achieve even cooking and a better crust on the steak.
Preheat your grill to a medium heat temperature (around 375 degrees F) for direct cooking. Add your steak to the grill to cook for 3-3.5 minutes per side or until reaching an internal temperature of 120 degrees F.
Make sure to sear off the bacon, using your tongs, to get it nice and crispy. Once the steaks are done, pull them off and let them rest for 10 minutes.
Best Mushroom Sauce
Reset your grill for direct cooking at 375 degrees F. Add a large skillet and then add some canola oil to that cast iron pan. 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 tender mushrooms back in and stir until well incorporated. Once done, pull off the heat and keep warm.

Leftovers & Reheating
If you have any leftover steak and mushroom sauce, wrap the meat tightly in aluminum foil and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
The next day, either slice up the steak to make burritos or sandwiches or reheat over the grill by placing the beef in a cast iron skillet with some beef broth to retain the moisture.
