directions

  • Mix together the marinade ingredients. Place in a resealable plastic bag with the steak. Marinate for 1-2 hours in refrigerator.
  • In a large skillet, cook bacon. Season with pepper for added flavor. Once crisp remove bacon but leave bacon fat in skillet.
  • Heat to medium and add onion and garlic. Cook for about 2 minutes. Add the beer and the spinach. Season with salt to taste and cook for 1-2 more minutes.
  • Add blue cheese, panko crumbs, and bacon to the mixture. Remove from heat and mix well.
  • Spread warm mixture into the middle of the flank steak, drained from the marinade. Roll and tie using kitchen twine. Place the steak roll in a roasting pan and season the outside again with salt and pepper to your liking.
  • Roast in a 350 degree oven until cooked to your liking.
  • Serve with a basic vegetable or mashed potatoes.
  • This is also great as a leftover in sandwiches with a fresh sourdough bread.

  1. Absolutely delicious! My hubby doesn't like blue cheese quite like I do, so I'll try 1/4 cup next time. I'd also like to try it with diced mushrooms in the onion/garlic/spinach combo. Yum - can't wait till next time!
     
  2. This was fairly easy to make, and quite tasty. DH & I were split about the marinade, I liked it, he didn't, so next time I'll like just make the filling and skip the marinade. The presentation was very nice, this would make a good dish to serve for a dinner party. I'd like to see more filling, as the end pieces didn't have much in them. I think you could double the filling without over stuffing the steak.
     
  3. I made this a few months ago as a test when I had a flank steak that needed cooked and plan on making it again this weekend for Mother's Day for family. I loved the spinach stuffing but wasn't all that hyped about the marinade. So I am however going to try it again with more seasoning to limit the vinegar flavor in the meat. Probably some brown sugar and a few drops of liquid smoke. But I really liked this and can't wait to try it again. It is pretty, impressive, easy and really good.
     
  4. This was delicious! My husband, and my in-laws absolutely loved it! I wouldn't change a thing about it, definitely a keeper!
