Faux Fillet Mignon - fantastic!

In trying to please every pallet in our home, I pondered a faux Fillet Mignon.   Trey and I adore the "real deal" while daughter #1 wants to "keep it healthy" and youngest daughter #3 is the pickiest of them all.   This is my effort and I'm sure there are many variations to this - what are yours???

Faux Fillet Mignon

Ingredients:

• 1 lb organic lean ground beef
• 1 lb ground lean turkey
• 6 slices jalapeno bacon
• 1 T Worcestershire Sauce
• 1 shallot, minced
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 2 T Montreal Steak Seasoning
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions:   Combine the ground beef and ground turkey using your hands.  Add the minced shallots and garlic to the meat mixture.  Add 1 T of the Montreal Steak Seasoning to the meat mixture and combine well.   Make patties with your hands and wrap with bacon.  I secured with a toothpick that I removed after grilling.   Season both sides with salt and pepper and the additional 1 T of Montreal Steak Seasoning.

Heat your grill, and I always use a little bit of Pam Grill Spray so things don't stick.   Grill on medium high heat until cooked to your preference.  Me, I'm a medium rare kind of girl.   The jalapeno bacon adds just the right bit of added flavor to the Faux Fillet and I love the Montreal Steak Seasoning!   It's a great combination.   I served this on top of a cloud of mashed potatoes and a side salad!   For the health conscious, discard the bacon, but for the rest of us... yummmmm!
