Bacon Wrapped Steaks with Compound Butter

Take your steaks up a notch with this easy compound butter recipe. I elected to use elk steaks because that's what I had on hand, but feel free to use the filet of your choice.

Bacon Wrapped Steaks with Compound Butter

Ingredients

• 4 filets or steaks or choice 

• Thin sliced bacon (if using filets) 

• 1 stick butter 

• 1 bulb of garlic

• Juice from 1 lemon

• 1 tbs Dijon mustard 

• 1 tbs fresh chopped chives 

• 1 tbs fresh chopped parsley

• Salt

• Pepper

• Garlic powder 

Directions

1. Season steaks with salt, pepper, and garlic. Wrap in bacon and secure with a tooth pick. Let rest in the fridge. 

2. Light charcoal grill. Cut off the top of a bulb of garlic. Place on a sheet of foil and drizzle olive oil over the top. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Wrap up in foil and place on grill. Cook for about 30-45 minutes or until the cloves are softened. 

3. Place steaks on grills away from coals to begin slow cooking. 

4. Combine butter, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and fresh herbs in a mixing bowl. Squeeze out the cloves of garlic. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir everything to combine. 

5. Once steaks reach about 115 degrees F internal remove from grill. Place more coals on grill if needed or increase heat to high. 

6. Place steaks back on grill and sear each side for a couple minutes. Remove and let rest. Top with the compound butter and enjoy!
