Bacon Wrapped Medallions

2 lbs. Venison loin cut into 11/2� thick medallions
Bacon strips
Garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste

Wrap bacon around medallions and tie with butcher string dust with seasonings. Place on a hot grill on edge so as to cook the bacon first. Cook 3 minutes on each edge. Put medallions on their sides and cook for 3 minutes each side, or until done to your liking.

Hey Big Guy,

When's supper? If its tonight I'll start driving right now. LOL

That looks fantastic!

And morels t'boot...NICE!!!

I like to use Tony Chachere's Original and a bit of file' powder on mine, but other than that, I don't know of a better way to cook 'em than in your picture.

I have had good success in filleting the loin length~wise, cutting about 3/8"->1-2" down the length while rolling it out, leaving one flat peice of meat, instead of butterflying and pounding flat.

Then stuffing it with sauteed (or grilled, or roasted); mushrooms, onion/shallot, garlic, roasted peppers, sun dried tomatoes, jalapenos , and so on. Maybe add some fresh spinach, basil and some parmigiano/romano shavings...whatever fits the taste buds at the time.

Roll it up jellyroll~style, wrap in bacon and grill over medium coals until just barely med/rare.

I believe the knowledgable culinary folks and chef~types call it a "Roulade"...

But...if I had to choose, I'd still go with the medallions...
