Tailgate Strip Steak Sandwich Directions

  3. Season the NY Strips with a little Worcestershire, then AP Seasoning, followed by a generous coat of Steak Rub.
  4. Place the cheese sauce on the side of the grill just off the coals to warm.
  5. Grill each steak directly over the burners for about 3 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 125-130°F. Remove from the grill and rest for 5-7 minutes.
  6. Split the ciabatta rolls in half and grill for 20-30 seconds until brown and toasty.
  7. Slice the steaks into thin strips.
