Equipment

Ingredients

  • 4 Filet Mignon 8 oz
  • 2 Tbsp Kosher Salt
  • Pepper
  • Bacon

Instructions

  • Salt each side of the filets and then place in the fridge for an hour.
  • Wrap the filets in a half strip of bacon and secure with butcher string.
  • Season each side of the steak with salt and pepper.
  • Smoke the filets at 180 degrees until the internal temperature hits 120 degrees.
  • Adjust temp on the smoker up to 450+ and continue cooking the filets until the internal temperature hits 130 degrees.
  • Rest for 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

Pay attention to the type of salt you use. I use Kosher Salt to prep the steaks - using table salt will result in an overly salty steak.
