What puts these beauties over the top is frying them in apple wood bacon grease and salted butter. I mean you only live once right so why not live it over the top! And since I’m serving these with potato salad, I’ll save the drippings and bits of steak that are left on the bottom of the frying pan and one day soon when I make something that I would love to serve gravy with, I’ll pull it out and before you know it another delicious meal.
