  1. My husband and I are trying to eat healthier, so we used turkey bacon instead of the fattier pork bacon, and it tasted wonderful! Great recipe.
     
  2. this was delicious... but I agree with the other poster... I had to cook it longer also. And I also sprinkled it lightly with rosemary.
     
  3. This was very good! I too am a spice person so I spiced mine up a bit. I used a cast iron skillet and had to cook about 8 mins on both sides. Thanks for posting.
     
  4. I always buy bacon-wrapped filet when I go grocery shopping. So, I love this recipe, however I'm a seasoning freak...so I added a few seasonings in.
     
  5. I made these in a cast iron dutch oven (without the lid) and they were perfect! 7 minutes left them slighly too red, but they finished cooking on the plate and were perfect! Thanks for a fool proof recipe.... and I agree - Use a thick bottomed pan.....
