What You’ll Need

The creamy ،rseradish sauce is sweet and ،y thanks to a bit of ،ney. Scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact amounts.

  • Bacon – Thick-cut bacon ،lds up better on the grill.
  • Beef tender، pieces – Ask your butcher to c،p them up for you.

For the Horseradish Sauce

  • Plain Greek yogurt – Make sure it’s unsweetened.
  • Prepared ،rseradish – Use your favorite.
  • Shallots – These can be swapped for more garlic.
  • Stone ground mus، – Dijon mus، is a great swap.
  • Garlic – Feel free to use garlic paste. Avoid garlic powder because it’ll make the sauce grainy.
  • Honey – Go for raw ،ney or agave nectar.
  • Salt and pepper – Kosher salt and freshly-،ed black pepper are best.

Tips & Variations

Keep them simple or add some shrimp if you really want to impress your guests.

  • Make them ،y. Slice a large jalapeño into 1/4″ thick slices. Place a slice on top of each tender، bite before wrapping it in bacon. Grill as usual for a kick of heat.
  • Go for store-bought. Save some time by using a low-sodium store-bought ،rseradish sauce.
  • Make it surf-and-turf. Place a medium-sized shrimp on top of each piece of beef and wrap them with bacon as usual for a yummy variation of this recipe.
  • Add seasonings. Toss the beef with 2 teas،s garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, or taco seasoning for extra flavor.
