I do this with deer(venison)steak or backstrap, but marinate it in Italian, like they said and then a dab of cream cheesem jalpeno on top, roll up and then wrap in bacon. Get grill ready( charcoal to side and we add wood, hickory, pecan, oak, when it gets hot, meat to the side and grill. When cream cheese starts easing out side then put over coals to brown bacon! Will make you slap yourself!

OMGosh - really good! I had a small amount of Italian dressing, so I added extra - a bit of olive oil, leftover balsamic vinegar/oil marinade from tomatoes I used in another recipe, & a romano dressing - anything like this works well in this marinade. I used a one pound NY steak & pounded the slices thinner, used minced pickled jalapeno in the cream cheese, and wrapped them up. I used the smaller bits of steak also & folded them with the cheese mixture inside. Covered them all with slices or pieces of bacon, then broiled them on a buttered cookie sheet for about 4 1/2 minutes (oops - had to pour off bacon fat), turned & broiled another minute. They are small, so I did not want to over cook them. It made 9 bigger & 6 bite-sized pieces. Served 3 - with a tasty Mexican rice recipe from this site, and added raw veggies, because we all need them. ;) PS, in reference to the one star review: The bacon does not crisp up - it never does in these recipes, but it went very well with the steak, anyway. These must be quickly broiled 2-3" from the heat source. Don't use too much filling or it will ooze.

This is one of our family's favorites! I add a small slice of red pepper on top the cheese before closing and wrapping - adds a nice extra texture and flavor to the bite. I plan to experiment with possibly onion, asparagus... Since I have a cholesterol problem, I change mine up a bit - still use filet but without the bacon and use low C cheese - not the same but it works for my needs and is still quite good. My family eats to the recipe.

Made these on Fathers Day for our appetizer. Everyone absolutely loved them. I used my own marinade instead of italian dressing. Will make these over and over.

made more than i realized - everyone loved. made some with hot peppers and others without since my husband doesnt like spicy things.

I have used this recipe 3 times, and every time, people have fallen in love with it. I have not changed a thing! LOVE IT!

This is SO FREAKIN' GOOD!!!!!

Made these tailgating in Buffalo.They were fantastic.Easy to make . I didn't let them marinate and they still were outstanding.Great appitizer!! GO BILLS!!

These were so delicious!! I made 2 batches & cooked one on a charcoal grill & the other on a gas grill, both @ a low temp for about 30 min. The charcoal ones had a much better taste in my opinion. They took awhile to cook, but i wanted to make sure that bacon was crispy! But both batches turned out super yummy and every single one was eaten! :)

OMG delicious and completely decadent. The cream cheese is very rich so I might use less next time but I summarized this recipe to my fiance who looked completely disgusted, and he ended up eating most of it. Absolutely fantastic. Not the prettiest little things, but who cares, with a taste like this.
