How people cook with it
This steak is ideal for celebratory dinners or when you want to treat yourself to something luxurious. It pairs well with classic steakhouse sides.
- Pan-seared for a perfect crust
- Grilled for smoky flavor
- Broiled to melt the bacon
- Served as a centerpiece dish
To prepare, allow the steak to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. You can sear it in a hot, oven-safe skillet for a few minutes on each side until a nice crust forms. Then, transfer the skillet to a preheated oven to finish cooking to your desired level of doneness. Alternatively, you can grill it over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until the bacon is crisp and the steak is cooked through. Resting the steak for a few minutes after cooking is important for juiciness.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike a plain filet mignon, this version includes bacon, which adds a salty, smoky flavor and helps keep the lean steak moist during cooking. The bacon fat renders and bastes the steak as it cooks, creating a richer taste profile. It offers a complete flavor experience in one cut.
Who it is for
This steak is for home cooks who appreciate high-quality beef and enjoy the added flavor and convenience of bacon.
