Ingredients

Two fillets of beef (whichever cut you prefer)

12 oz Stout beer. Ideally an Oatmeal stout that has a low bitterness level.

4 Garlic cloves

2 Tbl. Worcestershire Sauce

Enough thick cut bacon to wrap around the fillets

2 oz (or more to your taste) Blue Cheese (get the good stuff, it's worth it)

1/2 cup Panko Bread crumbs (any bread crumb will do in a pinch)

Salt & Pepper to taste

1/2 Sweet onion

10 medium Shrimp (uncooked)

Directions

Combine Stout, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic. Marinade steaks for a few hours

Cook bacon in large iron skillet until done, but still soft. Set aside

Cook peeled and devained shrimp in bacon grease just until they turn pink on each side. Do not overcook. Set aside

Remove steaks from marinade, wrap with cooked bacon using tooth picks to secure. Top with some salt, pepper, and a little bit of the garlic from the marinade

In a small skillet saute the sliced onion then add marinade. Reduce marinade until it is about one fourth or less of its original volume. Set aside

Get the Iron skillet with the bacon grease in it very hot, and cook the steaks a few minutes on each side, until they are cooked to your liking.

Combine blue cheese and bread crumbs, and rub together to combine

Top Steaks with blue cheese mixture and place in a hot broiler until a brown crust forms

Serve reduced sauce on the side of the steak with other side dishes.

I prefer to serve with steamed broccoli and roasted potatoes and thyme to give myself a sense that I am doing something healthy tonight.
