Instructions
- Step 1: Prepare the Chimichurri sauce by combining all the ingredients in a small mixing bowl.

- Step 4: On 2/3 of the meat, lay out the cheese slices overlapping slightly, repeat with the Genoa salami.
- Step 5: Sprinkle the chopped peppers across the Genoa salami.
- Step 6: Carefully roll up the flank steak, making sure to do so tightly. Secure the rolled meat with butcher's twine and secure the ends with toothpicks if needed.
- Step 7: Place the meat in the fridge until well chilled.
- Step 8: Preheat recteq to 450°F with the Mesquite Pellets.
- Step 9: Add the stuffed flank steak to the recteq and cook until an internal temperature of 135°F is reached, rolling the roast every 8-10 minutes.
- Step 10: Allow the flank steak to rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This dish is best served with the chilled chimichurri sauce.
