I think this was a leg cut. I made it into filet-looking medallions by making thick slices, removing the membrane, marinating in vegetable oil, salt, pepper, and rosemary, then wrapping them in bacon affixed with two crosswise skewers.
I pre-heated an oven safe skillet @ 450F, seared them on the stove top on all sides (including the bacon edges) and returned them to the oven, serving them medium rare with a deglaze of balsamic.
Next time I will cook the bacon more on all sides which, with a thick cut can be done by placing them upright turning them on the edges - the skewers got in the way, so I will cut the skewers more or try some other arrangement of fasteners.
Thanks again Dan P. for the protein.
