Mock Filets

01Method

1. 1

   Heat the oven broiler to high.

2. 2

   Combine ground beef with bread crumbs in a bowl, then mix in the eggs, onion, salt, and pepper until everything is well incorporated. Form the mixture into 6 thick patties. Wrap a strip of bacon around the edge of each patty and fasten it in place with a toothpick or kitchen twine.

3. 3

   Arrange the patties on a rack set over a broiler pan or in a casserole dish. Broil about 5 inches from the heat for 10 minutes, then remove and flip each patty.

4. 4

   Stir together the ketchup, brown sugar, and dry mustard in a small bowl. Spoon the glaze over the patties and return to the broiler for another 5 minutes, until the meat is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
