Bacon Wrapped Filet Mignon

I have bungled this recipe a few times. It simply takes the right cut of meat and nice strips of bacon you can pull around the filet. For just over a year we have subscribed to the Butcher Box. Filet mignon is often in the beef box subscription. I used an indoor electric grill.

Ingredients

Filet mignon, 1 per serving

Bacon, 1 per serving

Toothpicks, 1 per serving

Avocado oil, 2 tablespoons

Cracked black pepper, to taste

Pinch of salt for each filet

Preparation

Heat the oil in an indoor electric grill. I set the temperature to 200 to preheat the oil. Wrap the bacon around the edges of the filet and secure with a toothpick. Add black pepper and a pinch of salt to each side. Add to the grill and increase the temperature to 300 degrees. Cook ten minutes on one side before turning. It will be nicely browned. Reduce the temperature to 200 degrees and cook another 15 minutes. Test for doneness. We like our steak well done, so I increased the temperature again to 300 degrees. I guesstimated another 5 minutes.
