Anyways, it's actually really easy to overcook filet mignon hence why the George Foreman grill probably screwed up your first two. Last time I made it I just lightly seasoned it with salt and pepper and just pan fried it in butter. You probably want it to be at most medium to medium rare, any more done and it could turn out the way you described (anyways they'll continue to cook a little bit more after you take them out of the pan). Then once the filet's are done just take them out, put a tablespoon or so of flour dissolved in a little water into the drippings. Stir it for a bit until it thickens, and you got a light gravy which you can pour over them. Then again I always like my steaks simple, if you're looking for something fancier then sorry =/ | ||

Anyway, I don't prepare it myself much but I always pan-fry with butter... But I have to say mine, while delicious, don't even come close to what I have had in the hands of a chef who knows what they are doing. | ||

In that case just leave them on, but after knowing that I'd probably recommend broiling them then so the bacon gets cooked well. I mean you could probably still pan fry them, but I've never done bacon wrapped filet mignon so I'm not sure how well it'd cook in a pan. | ||

I strongly suggest tartar although I wish you hadn't frozen them  Thaw your fillet mignon, and very finely chop them; Season to taste with Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper sauce, salt and pepper; Get a baguette and slice them into ~ 1cm thick slices (on a slight angle of course); Drizzle the sliced baguette with extra virgin olive oil and bake them until they are crispy; Top baguette with fillet mignon tartar. | ||

obviously the way u season it is gonna influence the taste in the end so do what u feel like doing( theres shitloads of seasoning everywhere) I assume u overcooking it, i dont see how it is dry inside( just stop cooking when its starting to become resilient) if bacon not cooked throughoutly just press the side of a steak on the grill till its crispy - pretty easy solution edit: i guess hes trying to cook whole piece, not sliced. But yea that woulda solved the problem haha | ||
