Ingredients

Scale

For the Steak Roll Ups

  • 2 lb flank steak, flattened with a meat tenderizer
  • 1/4 cup Filippo Berio Sundried Tomato Pesto sauce
  • 4 slices Boars Head Havarti dill cheese
  • Cooking twine (100 percent cotton), for tying
  • Olive oil or salsa juice, for brushing (optional, for baking)

For the Mango Avocado Salsa

  • 1 red mango, peeled and finely diced
  • 1 avocado, cubed
  • 1/2 red pepper, finely diced
  • 1/2 green pepper, finely diced
  • 1/2 white onion, finely diced
  • 1 bunch cilantro, finely diced
  • 1 jalapeno, finely diced

Equipment Needed

  • Parchment paper
  • Meat tenderizer or rolling pin
  • Natural hardwood lump charcoal (for grilling)
  • Lighter fluid (for grilling)
  • 9x13 inch baking dish (for oven baking)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Mango Avocado Salsa: Peel the mango and dice it finely. Chop the red pepper, green pepper, white onion, cilantro, jalapeno, and cube the avocado. Combine all these diced ingredients in a bowl and refrigerate until ready to use. You can make this salsa the night before for enhanced flavor.
  2. Flatten the Flank Steak: Wrap the flank steak in parchment paper and gently pound it with a meat tenderizer or rolling pin until it is about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick, ensuring even thickness for rolling.
  3. Assemble the Steak Roll: Spread the sun-dried tomato pesto evenly over the flattened steak. Lay slices of Havarti dill cheese on top, followed by spooning the mango avocado salsa evenly over the cheese layer.
  4. Roll and Tie the Steak: Roll the steak tightly into a log shape. Cut four small strings of twine for crosswise tying at intervals approximately 1 1/2 inches apart, and two longer strings for lengthwise tying. Lay out the twine on a board, place the roll over it, and first tie it crosswise, then tie it lengthwise securely. Trim excess twine but leave knots intact.
  5. Grill the Steak Roll (Grilling Method): Prepare your grill by adding natural hardwood lump charcoal and squirt lighter fluid over the coals. Allow 10-15 minutes for the lighter fluid to burn off until coals turn white. Push the coals to one side of the grill to create an indirect heat zone. Heat grill to 250°F. Place the steak roll on the side without coals and cook for about 2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F, turning and charring on each side with tongs for about 2 minutes per side to develop a crust.
  6. Oven Bake the Steak Roll (Oven Method): Preheat your oven to 425°F. Place the tied steak roll into a 9×13 inch baking dish. Optionally brush lightly with olive oil or reserved salsa juice and sprinkle seasoning if desired. Bake for 35 minutes. Then switch oven to broil and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes to brown the top. Remove and allow to rest 15-20 minutes.
  7. Rest and Serve: Regardless of cooking method, allow the steak roll to rest for 15-20 minutes after cooking. Carefully cut off the twine and slice the roll. Serve with roasted broccoli or your favorite side dish.

Notes

  • Make the mango avocado salsa a day ahead to let flavors meld well and improve taste.
  • Ensure to tie the steak roll tightly with cotton twine to keep stuffing intact during cooking.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature for perfect doneness (145°F for medium).
  • When grilling, use indirect heat to cook the steak roll slowly for tenderness.
  • Resting the steak before slicing helps retain juices and improves texture.
