  • Remove steaks from the grill and allow to rest about 5 minutes before serving.

The bacon will not be crisp but should be cooked through if the steaks are cooked to medium-rare.  The bacon adds additional flavor to the steak and can be eaten with the steak or discarded if you are not a fan of chewy bacon.
