Anybody tried this with bacon-wrapped backstrap?


Just tried it. Pretty good. Don't cut one open and think its too rare and cook it an extra min per side.

Yeah the times were off on the original post. The linked recipie is more accurate. More like 1 1/2 minutes per side on the skillet and another 2 minutes per side when broiling for rare.

My dad told me about how to cook one like that. It is the best steak you will ever put in your mouth. I heat the oven to about 450, get the skillet to the point it is actually smoking and drop a lightly oiled ribeye into the dry skillet for exactly 2 minutes a side then into the oven. 5 minutes will get you rare, 8 medium, and 10 minutes well on a 1'' or so thick steak. I put a pat of butter on top of each steak as it's going in the oven. When done I sautee onion and muchrooms in the leftover juices. Great steak.

ps. I like to have the steak at room temp before hitting the skillet, for some reason that seems to make a slight difference.

I used the recipe from the link that was posted. Backstrap cut into medallions as thick as a wide piece of bacon.

I only tried it once. Yes I wrapped each piece with bacon. I cut it into steaks like a fillet.
