jalapeños

With a meat mallet, pound meat until flattened. (Butterflying meat with a knife first speeds up process.)

Dust the backstrap with garlic powder, seasoning salt, kosher salt & pepper.

Spread cream cheese on one side of meat, sprinkle with jalapenos, onions, and mushrooms. Add some shredded pepperjack if you’d like.

Roll meat and wrap with bacon & secure with toothpicks. Place in glass or ceramic baking dish.

Bake or grill until bacon is done. (400°F for 30 min in oven). Set to broil to crisp bacon. Grill over medium high heat.

Remove from heat & let rest for 10 minutes before slicing – if you can wait that long!
