smoked filet mignon

Ingredients  

  • 2 steaks filet mignon
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 slices bacon
  • 2 tbsp steak seasoning
  • 2 tsp kosher salt optional

Instructions

  • (Optional) Dry the steaks with paper towels. Season both sides evenly with kosher salt, using about 1 teaspoon per steak. Place the steaks on a wire rack set over a baking sheet and refrigerate them uncovered for at least 1 hour.
  • Take the steaks out of the fridge and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
  • Fire up your smoker to 225F degrees. We're using mesquite pellets for this cook, but use whatever you have.
  • Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Drizzle each steak with olive oil and season both sides with your steak rub.
  • Wrap each steak with a slice of bacon. Use a toothpick to keep the bacon in place.
  • Toss the steaks on your smoker with a wireless meat thermometer. Cook until they reach an internal temperature of 120F degrees.
  • When your steaks hit 120 internal, sear the outside of the steaks with either a sear gun, or on a ripping hot grill.
  • Allow the filet to rest for 10 minutes. Then serve and ENJOY!
