It Is So Worth It To Have A Great Steak

The filet mignon is so lean it has almost zero fat. Especially if you get cut from butcher about 2 inches thick. Very tender but sometimes not easy to bar b que being so lean. The bacon wrap helps maintain some juices in the tender cut. I eat the bacon wrap. Some people just discard it. If you order at a restaurant sometimes they remove it before serving so you never know it was there. In WY we have a butcher who makes his own bacon. Pricey but awesome bacon. We use his bacon around the filet mignon. Wine? Don't pass up the wine during this recession. You can get a $150 bottle of wine for less than $80. This recession is awesome times for retired people.
