Blacktail Backstraps sat in the marinade around 5 or 6 hours:

Image

Then cut into steaks, and marinaded another hour. 

Image

Meanwhile prep was done to ready for the caramelized Brussels sprouts. First up, bacon - cause everything goes better with BACON!

Image

Remove bacon when crisp for making bacon bits and brown Pine Nuts:

Image

Chop Brussels, add rendered bacon grease, olive oil, salt & pepper and toss well. Set on lined sheet. Can see bacon bits background right, and balsamic / maple syrup mix on the left. Put in preheated 425 oven for ~ 20 minutes (stir reasonably often) until tender & caramelized.

Image

Drop steaks on hot BarBee and grill to medium rare:

Image

Pull Brussels and toss with balsamic / maple mix, then top with bacon bits and Pine Nuts:

Image

Dish Up:

Image

Image

And Have At 'Er!! 

Image

Certainly hit the spot! :thumbup:
