Flat Iron Philly Cheese Steak Roll Ups
Slice the flat irons through the middle to butterfly the steak. Repeat with remaining steaks.

Place 1 butterflied steak between two sheets of plastic wrap and gently pound the steak to make it a uniform thickness and to stretch it a little. You want the steak to be about ¼ inch thick. Repeat with remaining steaks.

Brush steaks all over with a little olive oil and season with steak spice.

Lay the steak out onto a flat work surface or cutting board and brush the top side of the steak (side facing you) with a little Dijon mustard.

Take a slice of smoked meat (folding it if necessary) and lay it on top of the flat iron steak.

Spread 2 tbsp of softened cheese mixture over the entire surface of the smoked meat.

At one end place a little bundle of sautéed onions and peppers (about ¼) mixture. Place a piece of cheese string on top of the onions and pepper and press it into the mix.

Starting at the onions and pepper end roll up the steak into a pinwheel, nice and tight. Secure with two pieces of butcher twine or with a couple of wooden toothpicks. Repeat with remaining steaks.

Place rollups onto a plate, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour. This will allow the bundles to set/firm and make it easier to handle when you grill em.

Preheat the grill to medium high about 450-550 degrees F.

Grill Steak for 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium rare doneness.  Remove from the grill and rest for 5 minutes.

Toast some buns. Schmeer with extra cheese mixture. Top with extra peppers and onions.

Slice Steak Roll Up in to three or four rounds. Place a round or two on the toasted buns.

Serve immediately.
