Bacon Wrapped Strip Steak

Bacon Wrapped Strip Steaks

My first attempt at cooking bacon-wrapped steaks on my propane-fueled Weber grill.  They turned out great! I started by prepping the steaks. I seasoned them with a bit of salt and pepper. Next, I wrapped each steak with a strip of bacon, securing it with a toothpick.

I grilled them for about 6 minutes on each side until the bacon was crispy and the meat cooked to a medium rare temperature. I removed the steaks from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes to allow the juices to redistribute. Then, I sliced them into thin strips and served them up.

The bacon-wrapped strip steaks were delicious. It was the perfect summertime meal! The bacon added a salty and smoky flavor to the juicy and flavorful meat.

Lessons Learned:

I would probably use aluminum foil next time because the bacon does tend to stick to the grill a bit.

No major problems, though. How can you go wrong with steak, bacon, and beer?
