Strip Steak and Brussel Sprouts on the Mini

Got the Mini dialed in at 550° and let the CI get nice and hot,added the chopped bacon and let it get happy. Sorry bout the low quality pics but it was dark way early tonight.

Then added the chopped onions for a lil bit followed by the blanched Brussel Sprouts

After the sprouts were removed I let the CI heat back up and in went the strip steak right into to bacon grease.

Flipped a bunch and pulled @ 120ish I was crazy happy with the crust

The sprouts got a good dose of Sweet Chili Sauce.  

All plated up

    Steak looks awesome, and I love Brussels Sprouts with bacon.  A shot of heavy cream on them is a pretty good finish!

    You should really try adding 1-2 tablespoons of a sweet chili sauce.  Whole different level of good!!
