6- 8 filet mignon steaks about 1 1/2 - 2 pounds
4 tablespoons olive oil divided
3 tablespoons sweet garlic and onion rub
1 large onion sliced thin
2 cups diced bell peppers

Instructions

Set steaks out to come to room temperature about an hour before grilling.
Pat steaks dry with paper towels.
Spray or brush with olive oil and sprinkle with dry rub on both sides.
Prepare a grill fire to about 350° using hickory or oak for smoke flavor.
Cook peppers and onions in 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season with salt and pepper and continue to cook, stirring often until vegetables start to caramelize. Set aside and keep warm until serving.
Place steaks over direct fire to sear about 2 minutes.
Flip steaks and move to indirect heat and continue to cook with the grill closed about 8 minutes or until desired temperature is reached. Use a digital thermometer to check steaks.
