Ingredients

• 4 slices bacon
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 teaspoon Old Bay® Seasoning
• 4 (8 ounce) filet mignon (beef tenderloin)
• 8 ounces lobster tail, cleaned and chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 cup butter, divided

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Set oven to Broil at 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).

Step 2

Sprinkle tenderloins all over with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Wrap each filet with bacon, and secure with a toothpick. Place on a broiling pan, and broil to desired doneness, about 8 to 10 minutes per side for medium rare.

Step 3

While tenderloins are cooking, melt 1/4 cup of butter over medium heat with 1/2 teaspoon Old Bay® seasoning. Stir in chopped lobster meat, and cook until done. Spoon lobster meat over cooked tenderloins, and return them to the broiler until the lobster meat begins to brown.

Step 4

While the lobster is in the oven, heat the remaining 1/4 cup of butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, cook until it browns, turning the color of a hazelnut. To serve, spoon the browned butter over the steaks, and sprinkle with the remaining Old Bay® seasoning.
