Instructions
1
Preheat your grill or broiler for cooking the steaks. Season the T-Bone steaks with salt and pepper to taste.
2
In a large skillet, cook the chopped bacon pieces over medium heat until they are crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
3
Once crispy, remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on paper towels to drain excess grease, leaving about 2 tablespoons of the drippings in the skillet.
4
Add the sliced mushrooms to the reserved bacon drippings in the skillet. Sauté over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and lightly browned.
5
Stir in the cooked bacon pieces, A.1. Original Sauce, dry sherry (or water), and brown sugar. Mix well and bring the mixture to a boil.
6
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and allow the sauce to simmer uncovered for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will enhance the flavors. Cover and keep warm.
7
Grill or broil the seasoned T-Bone steaks for 14 to 16 minutes, flipping them occasionally, until they reach your desired doneness (135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium).
8
Remove the steaks from the grill or broiler, let them rest for a few minutes, then serve them warm, generously topped with the delicious bacon-mushroom sauce.
